Covering both those points (and more).
At our club meeting tonight we had two lovely cars in the carpark, an
new MG-TF in full X-Power livery (see this one without grey with green
paintjob -

we had a three week old MG-ZT (

The ZT was three DAYS old when it won in its "modern MG" class at our
recent NatMeet concours. I guess it would be hard not to be VERY
original when the car is three days old :-) Oh yeah, it was driven the
9 hours or so to the National Meeting and not trailered :-)
As an aside, we were given the figures tonight which showed that the
MGCC in South Australia is far and away the largest single-marque club
in our State - next biggest, go figure, is the Jaguar Car Club :-)
