Group Grille Badges are back - order now

Enthusiasts of British Motor Vehicles are proud to offer a 3rd production run of our custom-designed grille / bar badges featuring the group logo.

We are accepting orders from now until Midnight Saturday 11 July - our order will then be placed with the manufacturer and we anticipate receiving the finished badges ready to despatch to you approximately 7-9 weeks after that, so around mid September - but hopefully sooner.

It's a pleasure to see old-school craftsmanship still alive and well in the UK. Each badge comes with a 7 year anti-tarnish guarantee. I own one of the very first badges made for us. It is now 3 years old, lives outside in all weathers and still looks as good as new. It even survived a car fire earlier this year that destroyed my car!

Order now - offer closes 11 July. Free Group car sticker with every badge!

Updated News and Blogs pages on our website

I recently found that News items and Blogs were not easy to find or navigate on our official website when using a mobile device (smartphone or tablet).

The navigation bar I'm used to seeing down the right-hand side of the page on my desktop computer just isnt there on mobile devices, as I discovered only this week.
Since quite a high proportion of you access our website via mobile, I've just made some design changes to add a search function and some filters at the top of those pages (see preview below).

Preview of the new filters available on the News page

There are some great members' blogs going all the way back to 2015 which are now easily found either by date, by the author's name or simply by searching. Please take a look and let me know how it works for you - I hope it will encourage many more of you to dig around and enjoy all the good stuff that's there :-).

'tis the season to be jolly! A message from Admin

1/12/2019

A very merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all our members from the Admin team - Mike, Zebidee, Gar, Edwin, Steve, John and Paul. Thanks for all your support through 2019 and here's to an even bigger and better 2020! Also a special vote of thanks to our loyal sponsors Richard Edmonds Auctions, Alvaston Press and Lancaster Insurance - your financial and moral support really is much appreciated, guys!

Looking ahead, we are hopeful that once again we will have club stands at the Practical Classics Classic Car & Restoration Show as well as the Lancaster Insurance Classic Motor Show - both at the NEC - in addition to a raft of other events.

Shows and driving tours already announced for 2020 are shown below with more to come. Most events are free to enter (accomodation, fuel, food & drink at your own expense) and all members are welcome with or without a classic car - there are usually enough spare seats to carry some extra peeps but please ask first to be sure.

So enjoy the festive season, drive safely and we'll see you all next year!
