Until then, you can discover all the pictures here – a big thank you again to our member Pierre Levy, who provided us with the download portal.

Our calendar of events is still well filled for the rest of the year, you can discover it below.

The MG Car Club is paying a visit to the CNVH in Diekirch! The retrospective of the work of Jean Opron is currently on display there.

Jean Opron was a French automobile designer best known for his work at Citroën. Opron had a great influence on automotive design in the 1960s and 1970s, and was known for his innovative design approaches, particularly for aerodynamics and the integration of modern technology into car design. After his time at Citroën, he worked at Renault, where he led the design of the Renault Fuego and the Renault 25.

Luc Keipes will guide us through the exhibition and tell us some interesting stories about the design of cars from the 60s and 70s.

We will meet at the CNVH in Diekirch at 11 am, with the option of having a bite to eat in Diekirch afterwards.

The Economy Run is a permanent fixture in our calendar, and Tun Laschette is inviting us to this fuel-saving festival again this year.

The aim of the tour is to burn as little fuel as possible. At the end of the trip, the consumption of each vehicle is measured at a petrol station and a formula is used to calculate the consumption for the different MG types. There are separate classifications for classic and modern MG’s (but no separate classification for non-MG makes and for electric vehicles).

The tour will once again take place across Luxembourg. A short break is also planned.

We meet on Saturday, 5 October 2024 at 1 p.m. at the ARAL petrol station (36 Haaptstrooss, L-9835 HOSCHEID-DICKT). Departure between 1:30 p.m. and 2:00 p.m.

ARRIVAL is between 6 and 7 p.m. at the petrol station in Larochette. This is where the distance travelled and consumption will be checked.

The prize-giving for 2024 will take place in the pizzeria ‘Op der Millen’ between Larochette and Medernach.

Please indicate when registering whether you are only taking part in the excursion or whether you are also attending the dinner. Registration at Tun Laschette on: 621 786 555 or by e-mail: jlaschet@pt.lu by Monday, 30 September 2024 at the latest.

Contribution towards expenses per person: €5, to be paid on the day of the event. Please do not transfer the money, but bring it with you in cash.

We still have some #EEOTY backpacks left. These great picnic backpacks with the logo of the European Event can be yours for €28. Pay with Payconic using the code below, for more information contact Sonia!
