Endorsed by Toyota GB, we attend and organise meets all year round, ranging from social lunches over winter to scenic drives and static shows all summer. In 2023, the Club is attending over 140 events nationally, including our own annual highlight the MR2DC National Day, when over 400 MR2s gather together for the day. Whether your MR2 is Mk1, Mk2 or Mk3, spotless or muddy, concours or rusty - all are welcome to join us for just £15 a year!

Our summer meetings usually involve a drive to a rural pub that serves good food but our winter meetings tend to involve activities that can be done in the bar. Apart from our monthly meetings we visit local car shows or attractions of interest. We also like to get to different parts of the UK or Europe in our MGs. If you haven’t taken your MG abroad yet, then you should . The roads are quiet, the food, the accommodation and the company are all excellent and the Europeans are really friendly to the classic car owner. In short, any excuse to get away.

Our evening meetings usually start about 7-00pm / 7-30pm on the last Tuesday of the month when we have a local drive organised. Occasionally we meet on a Saturday morning. If Covid taught us one thing it is the need to be flexible and mix things up a little to add variety and interest. It also helps for those who might have commitments on regular club nights.

If you have an MG, or are interested in MGs then please come along to one of our meets and try us out. You can use our contact form to get in touch and find out where we will be next.

This year we are aligning with the future; the Rolls-Royce Spectre has dazzling power with effortless performance giving limitless freedom. This car combines agile performance with the legendary magic carpet ride.

Passengers at CarFest have always marvelled in the Rolls-Royce cars, it will be exciting to share the gorgeous leather and acres of real wood trim with Spectre where conversations will be towards the 900Nm of TORQUE delivered through the new EV system with zero CO2 emissions.

But beyond the tech specs, let's focus on its owner. Picture this: shortly after getting the car, they took it to SPA and had a blast both on and off the track. Now, imagine yourself in the passenger seat of a red Ferrari at CarFest. You can experience the thrill of the track and then hit the road in your very own Dream Ride with Sporting Bears. So, why not come and join in the excitement?

The legendary Murcielago succeeded the iconic Diablo, harnessing the full power of its V12 engine to surpass the 200mph milestone.

Boasting a potential speed of 77mph in first gear alone, and with only 10 Murcie Roadsters in the UK, this presents a truly rare chance to experience the thrill of riding on track at CarFest in this remarkable Bull.

Let’s keep the roof off, wave to the crowds, let the V12 roar on The Kwik Fit-Michelin Track and see how this wide car enjoys the roads.

Aston Martin, history as long as you like and another famous sports car manufacturer with links to tractor manufacturing, unlike Porsche and Lamborghini though Aston have the film rights across the globe as the 007 James Bond cars, from the DB5 through the years.

Well we can’t say Daniel Craig or even “James” is driving this car but we can say it’s a CarFest superstar along the track and out on the Laverstoke roads. Experience the performance and soul of the iconic Aston brand. .

This stallion has been a favourite with Dream Rides on the road and when we untethered the reigns and opened the track gates……..no prancing pony here, it’s fast AND loud pure American Muscle for your track ride. .

A supercharged and highly modified 5 litre 840 BHP 2017 Mustang GT. 0-60 in under 4 seconds and it's loud, very loud, check out the purple zombie mustangs on the decals. Able to seat 3 passengers you can enjoy supercar performance as a family at CarFest!

The power to weight ratio is higher than a Bugatti Veyron, this car really does move on track, without any driver stability controls, it may be red but it’s definitely not a Ferrari, this is the Lola, T70 special canam car all original bodywork mounted onto period tubular spaceframe hillclimb chassis in the early eighties.

One passenger will be driven on the track and then straight onto the open roads for another 10 miles, race goggles provided, keep your mouth closed and hang on to your hat!

According to Enzo Ferrari “The Jaguar E-Type is the most beautiful car in the world.”

Since the age of 9, this Jaguar’s owner dreamed of owning an E-type, and now that dream has come true. They've had this Series 1, 4.2, Open Two Seater in Carmen Red since 1997, and it's just been fully restored. Despite the restoration, they've kept some original features like the Jaguar leaper and seat covers for sentimental reasons. These items remind them of their late father driving the car and of a special encounter with Tiff Needell from Top Gear in 1999.

Now, you have the chance to experience why the E-Type is so highly regarded by Enzo Ferrari and many others. Come see it in action at CarFest on the Kwik Fit-Michelin Track and cruising through the country roads of Overton.

Introducing a rare gem from 1981: the Two Door Range Rover Convertible, once ranked by Top Gear magazine as the 6th most fascinating Range Rover ever built.

Originally customised by Townley Cross-Country Vehicles Ltd in London, this car represents the pinnacle of 1980s Range Rover conversions, sought after by wealthy clients in the Middle East.

With only a few left worldwide, these convertibles are truly special.

This particular car has a fascinating history. It was first owned by Queen drummer Roger Taylor and boasts luxurious upgrades like a power-operated hood and custom interior. After changing hands a few times, it underwent a thorough restoration to bring back its former glory.

Initially designed as an affordable car for the masses, the Deux Chevaux, or 2CV, enjoyed nearly five decades of production.

Despite its humble origins, it boasts a charm that rivals even the most prestigious Ferraris, with the added bonus of lower service costs.

Meet "Bumble," a slightly modified version of the classic 2CV. While it retains the original 602cc air-cooled engine, it features upgraded "racing" pistons and barrels, boosting its power output from 27 to approximately 33 BHP. Although Bumble can reach speeds of 60mph, its real thrill lies in its impressive leaning angle during a Dream Ride, potentially matching or even exceeding 35 degrees on the track.

Baguettes not included!

Thanks to Wilton Knight, we now have KITT (Knight Industries Two Thousand) driven by our very own UK version of Michael Knight. This opportunity offers a nostalgic trip back to the days when Knight Rider graced our screens, back when we had just four TV channels.

The dashboard bears David Hasselhoff's signature, confirming its authenticity. KITT embodies all the sounds and traits of the original TV series and can engage in conversation with you—just be prepared to respond to the name "Michael" if you're up for the challenge!
