Greetings to all Northern Centre Members

Apologies, but it seems I am becoming a bit of a repeat offender when it comes to getting the newsletter published on time! I’ll have to work on that.

In this edition, you’ll find a glimpse of the very successful 2026 Indaba, hosted by the Johannesburg Centre. It was a fantastic event, and I really hope we can encourage even more of our members to attend the next Indaba in 2028, which will be hosted by the Southern Centre in Mossel Bay. I’ll share more information in the next edition.

Our recent club night was hosted by Meredith and Ian, and we were delighted to welcome a special guest, Noggin, chairman of the MG Car Club, our beloved “Mother Club”.

Looking ahead, we want to encourage our members to get their cars out and enjoy the Jacaranda Run this month. It’s a great opportunity to spend time with fellow members, enjoy our MGs, and make the most of our wonderful motoring community.

Remember, we have our own track, and the plan is to take our two best cars to the 2028 Indaba! So, start planning, get those creative juices flowing, and let’s see what our members can come up with. It’s never too early to start preparing for what promises to be another fantastic event!
