Out and about - Uttoxeter the MG TF and F center of the world

Well I just cannot believe the amount of F and TF's I keep seeing, all in the same area, the three very close together roundabouts on the A50, B5032 and the one close to the Uttoxeter retail park.
Nearly every other time I pass through there is a TF going around one. Never see the same one twice!
Wednesdsay evening a grey TF driven by a lady passing the McDonalds exit on the 5032 and turning on to the A50 then today at about 5.00pm, a tidy looking Starlight silver TF with a hardtop on flashing at me passing over the A50 flyover.

Dunno what it is about this area of the world, but it attracts TF drivers like flies around poo!

Record so far is three in as many minutes last year!

Yes as I found out one summer just nipping to uttoxeter can turn into a mg show.

Uttoxeter. Famous for Sue's Auntie Joyce. The most dangerous driver of a Pug 206 I've ever seen.
The only MG I've seen is ours... :whistle:

Bought my tf from uttoxeter mecca.

Seen lots of mg cars there but I've never seen auntie Joyce.

And yet more MG's out and about around Uttoxeter - and again they are cars I have not seen before...
Spotted on the A518 heading out of Uttoxeter to Chartley at around 4.30pm was a nice blue LE500, then at about 7.30pm, a dark green MGF heading from Rocester on the B5030 towards Uttoxeter.
Finally parked up in Stafford, near to the Queens retail park, a gold coloured MGF!

No waves though, as I was driving my ZT-T and a company car (Vauxhall Insignia) when I passed them all.

She usually introduces herself by reversing into a gatepost, or more usually by scraping your car whilst doing a 17 point turn. Be afraid.... :woowoo:

nice looking motor

Made my way to the mg mecca today...came from the direction of buxton through ashbourne on the a515...just out of ashbourne saw a couple of midgets and thenI had a red mgf behind for a short time...arrived at the mecca around 12.30......saw a good display of classic cars about......2 nice cars i saw in stone,staffordshire...a triumph tr6 followed by a austin Healey 3000..morris (moggy) van..but sadly mine was the only mg I saw at the mecca.
