Question from a new owner - Royal Blue 479

JimGBucks · 1st September 2014, 09:32

Hello all, my name is Jim, I live near Bicester and I was a member of the MGV8 Register a few years ago (ex MGB GTV8, then RV8 owner). Bought my SE saloon (LB04 EOS) about 3 months ago from James at Elite and am really pleased with it - low mileage, no rust and all seems ok.

Does anyone know anything about the history of this car, former owners, previous club registration etc as I am really keen to document as much as I can.

Thanks

Jim

Welcome to the club, Jim - got any pics yet?

Hi Jim,

Glad to hear you're enjoying the new car, it'll be well worth you getting onto the 'Two-Sixties' forum, full of V8 specific info and possibly the history you're looking for on there

Good luck,

Paul.

However in order to get full access to the 'Two Sixties' forum you must first join the MG Owners club.

Bought from Elite cars by any chance?

Yes and very pleased to have done so as I have had excellent post sales service and support from James.

Yes. but no forum fees

(and own a ZT260/75V8)

Yes but it a condition that is not made clear until after you have completed the application form and are then left wondering why you still don't have access. Perhaps one day I might be in a position to join yet another club, but there is a limit.

If you view the thread in the public area titled full membership it does state about MGOC membership.
