This year we are pleased to announce that we have secured a prestigious location at the runway centre near Manchester Airport, home of Concorde. We will have 2 roadruns, one starting south of Manchester, the other somewhere around Rochdale, then the two groups will meet and enter the runway centre together where we will put on a display along the main concourse. Entrance to the runway centre will be free for members displaying a car and there will be an opportunity to tour concorde at a discounted price. http://www.manchesterairport.co.uk/manweb.nsf/content/runwayvisitorpark

Witton Park - 20th May.

We will have a stand again this year at the Witton Park Show, of which our member Andy is one of the organisers. Not sure of the booking details on this one Phil?

Tatton Park - June 2/3/4th

As ever we will be taking a stand at Tatton Park, which this year is a 3 day show thanks to the Queens Jubilee. We are hoping to portray a '50's British holiday theme at this show so thinking caps on! Booking forms will be available at the February meeting and it is essential that a form is completed well in advance if you wish to attend. We will need to ensure a good display of cars over all 3 days so please give some thought as to which days you might like to attend so that we can give everyone an opportunity to show their car.

Blackpool Stanley Park, Italian Gardens - July 1st.

A new event for this year, we will be putting on a group display at the ornate and delightful Italian Gardens and enjoying a day at the seaside. Full details will follow nearer the time so watch this space.

Tatton Park 2 - August 18th/19th

We will have a stand at this the second Tatton show of the year, booking details will appear nearer the time. It is anticipated that we wont pursue a theme at this show as we will be focusing our efforts on the larger earlier show.

MSTG Annual Show 2012 - 21st/22nd/23rd September

For the first time this years annual show will be a weekend long event. We feel this will give us an opportunity to offer a really interesting programme of events but in a relaxed social setting, The main part of the weekend will be a display of cars in the beautiful Pavillion Gardens in Buxton on Sunday the 23rd and of course you are welcome to attend just this part of the event if you can't make the whole weekend.

For the rest of the weekend we will be staying at a delightful medieval inn call the Bull' i'th' thorn, between Buxton and Ashbourne on the A515. http://www.bulliththorn.com/ The Inn is over 500 years old and offers a quiet campsite with lovely views and caters for tents, caravans and motorhomes or if camping isnt your style then you could try one of the lovely B&B rooms in the Inn, priced from just £70 a night including breakfast.

Over the course of our stay we will lay on fun activities for all the family and if the weather is kind to us we shall enjoy a BBQ and a few well earned beverages as well.

Booking for this event will open shortly. Pre-booking is essential for this event.

Bus Museum - TBC

We will hopefully be making our usual trip to the Bus Museum again this year but we are hoping to move it to a different date to take advantage of the summer weather for outdoor shows. We will keep you posted.
