2008 Rose of the Shires Run

The Northants MG Owners’ Club staged yet another successful road run from the Aviation Museum, Sywell. The popular MG run is also open to other classics, bringing Triumphs, Morgans and TVRs to add interest to the entry.

Northants MGOC use the run to raise money for charity and last year’s event raised over £3,500 for the Warwickshire and Northamptonshire Air Ambulance.

The car park rapidly filled up with MGs and other classics
