Carlton Grey, Yukon Grey, Saxon Grey from the 68/69 year
Grampian Grey from the 64/67 year.

I DON'T CARE - I think Tsleight should get it for sheer perseverance with a phone with a view :woohoo: :woohoo:

I would be better with the colour of the dogs - come to think of it, I've gone to the dogs :coat:

The EX120 at Montlhery racetrack in France.
Immediately after successfully gaining the record the car burst into flames. When the crew arrived at the burning car the driver, Eystron, was no where to be seen A citroen driver found Eystron unconscious and took him to the hospittal.

Well done Rog! The first MG to pass 100mph and it was only 750cc...

Okay, a bit of racing history with a two part question.

Part One: Name the MG's (which are sharing something in common - see part 2 of question below the photos)

Part Two:

All of these cars are pictured on a racetrack used in the 1950's. Name it? For extra kudos, if you want, you can tell me the two
main reasons why racing proved unsuccessful here and didn't continue.
Some clues:
Ken Tyrell won the last F3 race to be held there.
Lotus won their first ‘Formula 1’ race there. ... be careful
Altogether, this track hosted three Formula 1 races.
