I was starting to get excited that the auctioneer wouldn't get these items up in time -- but here they are! Each item is pictured and comes with some sort of description. There will be 3-400 individual MG items, let along the shop equipment and office items. Christmas comes early for those who log onto www.vkauctions.com and bid successfully for an item. This must be the greatest MG auction since the factory auction in 1981!

"This must be the greatest MG auction since.."

Well, "greatest" is a sort of a relative term here!

It is also the "worst" auction of all time because I am so sad about what it represents: the closing of University Motors, a truly unique and significant part of the MG world.

I am very glad, and grateful, though, to have had the opportunity to deal with, and partake in, the fruit of John Twist's business over the years, to my great benefit and pleasure.

Ditto to Norm. Never met the guy but have watched his videos. We're losing a great MG resource.
