MGCC Centenary event in Bonn Square, Oxford

June 1, 2023

Free

The main Club is organising a celebration of the sale of the first Raworth MG by Morris Garages from their original Queen Street premises in Oxford.
This will take place in Bonn Square at the west end of Queen Street in Oxford, close to the original Morris Garages showroom (it’s actually opposite Marks & Spencers). 1st June 1923, is believed to be the actual day the first Raworth car left the showroom 100 years ago. There will be a small display of cars and the occasion will be a media opportunity first and foremost to focus on the MG marque’s history, although it may be possible there will be walking tours of MG in Oxford. T Register and indeed all Club members will be more than welcome to rock up – on foot of course, the area is pedestrianised.
It is proposed that the display will start at around 8am and run until 6pm, with time set aside for speeches by local dignitaries and leading MG marque club members.
