CHAIRMAN’S CHAT Hi all. It was good to see so many members at recent club nights, the summer is on its way and we are getting out and about more. We are planning our our main event of the year, the Brunel Run. It's a different format this year with a day run on a theme of "Strawberries and Steam". If you haven't booked yet please do. On a different note I see the MG Xpower branding from the 2000's is making a come-back. One of the new companies electric hatchbacks now has an Xpower model, with 0-62 in 3.8 seconds, and a "Track Day" mode on the dashboard. Whatever next! Happy motoring Andrew
SECRETARIES’ SLOT Hi all What wonderful weather we have been having (at the time of writing of course, we could have snow at any time knowing our climate). BAMGOC members have been taking full advantage of the sun. A great 'Drive It Day' run from Violet and Richard. Plenty of twists and turns, I had no co-driver so I made good use of my accelerator pedal and followed Chris and Pauline. Following a very scenic run we arrived at the Churchill Inn for lunch, and a splendid meal it was too. Some of our troops travelled to Exeter for the 'More to See' run which I understand was a great day out. We are very keen that more BAMGOC members sign up for the Brunel event in September, we have had bookings from far and wide but we need them from close and near too. Our fundraiser,Tina, would welcome some nice prizes for the Brunel raffle, preferably enrobed in glass, or some MG related gifts. We are going to start selling raffle tickets for this event at club nights from June. All proceeds, as always are for Barton Camp, who have been so generous in the past letting us use their facilities and grounds for Brunel weekends. In closing we are chanting to the weather gods for good weather for lots of upcoming events. Hélène and Pauline

Moss Bristol Tel: 0117 923 2523 Fax: 0117 942 8236 Email: bristol@moss-europe.co.uk Web: www.moss-europe.co.uk Our thanks go to Moss Bristol for advertising in our magazine and to Owen, Jim, Tony, George, Steve and Martin at Moss Bristol for all their help and support to our members.

Our thanks go to the following magazine sponsors:

Chris Leverett Classics (near Backwell) Tel: 07710 796841 Web: www.mgrepairs.co.uk Our thanks go to Chris Leverett Classics for advertising in our magazine and for advising members for many years.
A plea for the magazine: It takes all of two minutes to stop and take a picture; how many of you now own a digital camera? How many of you own a computer? It would be lovely to feature some members cars being used as they should each month. It is so simple to email them, just say who its from and where it was taken, if you wish to write more we will be more than pleased. Email to MAGAZINE PHOTOS - thankyou.
The magazine is financed by both your membership fees and our advertisers. If you, or anyone you know, wishes to advertise in Fast Forward then here are the rates - full page £15, half page £10, quarter page £5. There are 6 issues a year so the maximum cost is £90. Copies go to all members plus copies are handed out at Moss, Chris Leverett Classics and at any shows we attend.
Thank you to everyone who sends in reports for the magazine. Word documents are great for words (as the name suggests) but make a poor job of photos. So, please include your photos into the Word document by all means but also email photos in separately so that the best can be made of them. Thank you - Pauline
CHANGES AT MOSS BRISTOL: Moss Europe Ltd decided recently that to continue to support the classic car community the only way forward was to have all of its stock holding held in one location. This decision follows almost all of the classic car parts suppliers and it is a trend seen across many industries worldwide with the growth of mail order and internet sales in recent times. Appreciating this is not ideal for those dedicated customers and friends who normally collect goods but the actions were taken to keep the supply of parts for many years to come. All the sales staff within the Bristol branch are still here, still working hard and still able to advise and support those needing that personal service. The shop is now closed but we can be contacted on 01179 232523 as before. The website improves day by day for those wanting to shop online but please feel free to support our local team by calling up. The Bristol team will continue to enjoy classic MG’s and there will be no escape from seeing us in the future as we will continue to support the community by way of many classic car shows and events into 2025.
