Ian Quarrington attended the Classic Car Show at Knebworth, relaxing after his hard work at Donington Park at the weekend. He was delighted to see his wife, Marion, take second prize in her class (sports cars and tourers from the 1970s and 1980s) in the concours with her Matra. Ian adds "all that hard work over the years on her Matra paid off. She was the only lady entrant and there were about thirty cars in her class. Jon Presnell from Classic and Sportscar magazine carried out the judging, he is in the background of the first photo".

Ian noted "you will pleased to know that the Matra carries several modified MG parts where we could not get Matra originals including a replacement MGB wiper motor, replacement MGF gear selector linkages, modified MGB wheel centres and a replacement MGZT front grill mesh".
