V8
Awards at MGLive!
Three awards are made at the V8 Annual General Meeting held
at MGLive!, the Club's principal annual event. This year the
awards went to Peter Garton, Steve Newton and Lauran Gallacher.
Chris Dodds Award
The present trophy is in fact a copy of the first trophy
as the first trophy was filled with silver shields!
Ian Lloyd Cup
Geoff Allen Cup
In each case the awards are in memory of three wonderful members
of the V8 Register.
Geoff Allen Cup 2011
As the award went to a young lady this year we felt something
a little more appealing to a young lady than a pewter tankard
might be a good idea. The picture frame is made in steel by
Tilley Design and supplied through National Trust shops. No
two examples of these frames are the same.

Chris
Dodds Award 2011
The award was made to Peter Garton, an enthusiastic
RV8 member in Germany who has contributed several
useful workshop notes and many interesting postings
on the V8 Bulletin Board. His amusing accounts of
driving his RV8 in the Moselle region illustrate
how an MG is an all round pleasure! |

Ian
Lloyd Cup 2011
This trophy was first awarded in 2002 in memory
of a very popular and cheerful RV8 and MGBGTV8 enthusiast,
the late Ian Lloyd. The trophy is "awarded
to a member who has brought good cheer and humour
to the V8 Register over many years". This year
the cup went to Steve Newton who regularly helps
the V8 Webmaster with information and photos for
articles and news items on the V8 website. |

Geoff
Allen Cup
2011
This trophy was awarded for the first time in 2007
in memory of Geoff Allen, a much loved V8 enthusiast.
who brought a wealth of technical knowledge to the
V8 Register and acted as historian and guardian
of the V8 Factory records for many years. This year
the award went to Lauran Gallacher, a work experience
student who has made a wonderful contribution to
the work of the Club Office team. Jean Allen presented
the award. |
