Yes MG driving was o.k. today in the Netherlands:
Sunny weather and up to 12 deg C!
I went to the newyear parts gathering of the Dutch MGCC.
Lots of MG's and I even found one new headrest cover of my MG only for $
3.00 (autumn leaf 1971). Regrettably the guy did not have the second one....
Cheers,
Hans
'71 BGT
