May meeting

Our club was founded in 1991, as the Madison MG Group, in order to bring people with an interest in British cars together. This leads to diversity, but the common thread among our members is that everyone likes to talk about cars…. driving, maintaining, and restoring.

Our club members are very knowledgeable about their cars and can provide great technical support to someone who's looking for help or just another opinion. And there's a wealth of experience among our members when it comes to looking at a potential purchase; we've all done it at least once! Some of our members have a good stash of spare parts and special tools, too, or can at least point someone in the right direction.

This site is part of the MG Webring. What's that? It's a link to 271 other MG webpages. When you're finished looking at our site come back to the bottom of this page.

Currently our membership consists of about 75 households. The bulk of our members lives around Madison and Milwaukee, but we also have club members as far north as Green Bay and out of state.

Madison British Car Group publishes a monthly newsletter, "Rumblings",  and holds monthly meetings during the storage season.

In addition, some of us like to get into our cars and drive them around to different places! Several of us have gone to University Motors Summer Parties in Grand Rapids, area car shows, and to GOF events. These events are also posted in our "Rumblings"  newsletter with a contact name if you're interested in finding more info.

Dues: $20 per household for the first year. Name badges are $5. Sweatshirts, hats, and T-Shirts with the club logo are also available. (The sweatshirts are warm; the T-Shirts are very cool!)
A Friendly Reminder: Member Dues are due.

New Members Please do not forget to fill out our interactive Membership Form, print it, and send it in!
The form may not be "interactive" with older operating systems and versions of Adobe Reader. It can still be printed and filled out by hand.

Note: "Rumblings"  is a .pdf file. If you need a FREE .pdf file reader click on the Adobe Logo.
