er, having only just seen this three points (althou' I'd prefer pints) of order

a) in relation to MGBs generally 55mph would be an exaggeration, flattery or self-deception more like 40mph!

2) TT was quite right - "I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member."
Groucho Marx

D) we need a written paper manual of the club's constitution and rules

4) please do try to remember that Spridgets don't have such frills as a glove box wot they don't 'ave

f) I'm out as I moan all the time

[Roy C]

Re-edited to put my name back in!
I suspect it was a victim of cross-posting.
May I suggest that you check your name is still there...

Are you allowed to go faster if your car is on the back of a breakdown truck ?

of course as it'll be the only of experience of such speed whilst you own the car

. . . and you're saving petrol, smart move to get that breakdown truck to take you 300 miles home and the driver such a very nice man too

[lowdrag]

I am highly honoured sir. May I propose, as club logo, one we used in my professional life?

VOS ROTUNDAE

It is pig latin, but roughly translated means "your round".

ETA In the rebuild of the E-type, we have now blanked off third and fourth to comply with the club rules.

I'm far too young to promote anything to do with wire wheels, next you'll be insisting we all have tartan rugs for our knees or to sit on as we have a picnic ...

... as we wait for the recovery truck

a little less MGB thinking is required here

don't like the printed swearing either as I am too old for that

[fourfoldroot]

Please count me in too...........

EDIT: P.S. I've never used Paypal. Do they still do Postal Orders?

[lowdrag]

I think I've found the perfect logo folks:-

Haven't a clue but we'll find a way of getting the Club stickers to any folk who don't Paypal.

[PoshTwit]

Not bad.

Needs to be a close-up though as you can't see his beard from this distance...

Monsignor Tony, welcome to the warming bosom that is Club 55. You have most defiantly found the perfect photo and your suggestive 'Vos Rotundae' is gladly accepted as club moto...and as you've offered, I'll have a Guinness

[grumpy52]

As a person that spends much of my driving hours at 55 or less and much of my other working time and free time elbows deep in mot and tax free vehicles may I join , remember the old 70's mantra "fifty is thrifty but the ton is more Fun"
2 stickers please they will go with my 1k club membership.
