The County Museum in Abingdon is being refurbished and has been closed since late 2010. When it reopens, hopefully in June 2012, it will contain a permanent MG display which will be accessible during museum opening hours. Those of you who have visited the museum in the past will remember that the MG Room was only open during weekends and manned by volunteers, so a giant leap forward is almost upon us!

The latest stage in the refurbishment work occurred recently as you can see from the photos alongside. Here an MGB is lifted into the room through a window - it was a tight fit! The event was covered by the local media and may be viewed on the local BBC website. More
