Heritage At MG 80

Published: 20th July 2004
Britain’s best-loved sports car marque, MG, is having its official 80th Anniversary celebration at the MG Car Club’s massive ‘MG 80’ long weekend at Silverstone, 23-25th July. Amongst the many companies making up the ‘largest MG trade area in the world’ at this special event is British Motor Heritage Limited. For nearly 30 of those 80 years, Heritage has played an important role in nurturing the world-wide enthusiasm for MG and helping to ensure its survival through past difficulties.

As Heritage managing director, David Bishop says : " In addition to supporting the classic MG sports cars with an unrivalled parts back-up, Heritage produced the bodyshells for the MG RV8 of 1992, which was a vital bridging link between those classics and today’s exciting MG models".

The Heritage display at Silverstone will include examples of their classic MGB GT and MG Midget bodyshells, as well as their special hardtop for the modern MGF/MG TF model ranges. Many of the British Motor Heritage Limited Approved Specialists, who provide the retail network for the entire Heritage range of original parts, will also be exhibiting at Silverstone.
