The badge is the prize but it does come with a free LE500

There's another under the bonnet that says 251 or something like that! Dunno if that means something in MG circles ?

Abingdon 251, MG's Phone number whilst in Abingdon

I have just read the version or this thread on another well known MGF/TF forum and all I can say is "Thank goodness for The T Bar"

+1

The T-Bar the home of the real MGF/TF enthusiasts, the forum which recognises the value and historical significance of the 251 VIN No. and I'm sure I speak for all members when I say we appreciate all the efforts of John Newey for organising this once in a life time prize draw and for the £1000 to such a worthy cause.

Good luck to everyone entering and I look forward to seeing the smile on the winner's face in the photo's, hopefully, one of the T-Bar members

Thought it was a great way of finding an MG enthusiastic home for what is a very special car. If an of you knows someone who'd like to enter, then pass on the details. I'm already upto 50 entries and from as far a field as Northern Ireland and Australia!

Thought I'd post on here now so that you nocturnals can see the details of this competition (see the first post). Had entries today from The Netherlands, so the word is spreading!

I'll probably be in my MG X-Power fleece and black MG X-Power Hotwheels jeans (can't beat a bit of X-Power !)

I posted this on another site I go on and a chap posted back they have been trying to sell this car for the last 10 months so they are now trying this
