MNR owners club?
Given the population of MNRers is growing, what's the possibility of starting up an owners club? I would gladly put myself forward as club
treasurer. After all my qualified accountant status has to do me some good somewhere, cos it's bugger all use at work! Any offers for chairman,
Iain?
Cheers

I'd happily join an MNR owners club but does it have to be that formal? Why not just run it a s a branch of locostbuilders?

I was wondering when someone would start an owners club thread!
I think it'd be a great idea, maybe with the possibility of club shirts and hats and the like for a small fee...?
It may even make a small difference to insurance premiums?
More ideas people?
Chris.

Yes - I would definitely go with the idea of a MNR club - I've already got the T shirt - got it made via a German T shirt company, down loaded
the logo and had it printed on a yellow same colour as the car) - looks the b......ks
It would be excellent to get a load of MNR's together - I'm in Thrapston, Northants, anybody near me

I am a member of the DAX owners Club I have some Idea of a Charter Ect and I suppose my connections with Marc could be good.
My feeling would be to keep things quite open ( and Freindly ) I can do the Club secraty I suppose. have I a bit of computer knowlege so doing news
leters web site ect not a problem as MNR have quite a few customers which arn't on Locostbuilders Give me a week to come up with somthing run it
buy Marc and Chris and we can take it from there.

Is there any nesws on this?
HIC insurance have added MNR to their free (with normal policy) track day insurance list but I have not yet seen the small print, ie the track day may
have to be recognised by a club to qualify for cover. Having an MNR club may help with this?? ie please let's get a club together and
'recognise' when we head off to any track! Don't know how this affects anyone else but I live 5 miles from Llandow. And would love
to have you all visit
After a few cans all that makes perfect sense to me!

5 miles? You must know a good shortcut.
Come down!!! I'll arrange a track day at Llandow if that suits....?

ditto. Regarding the club, I've just got an interesting quote from Norton insurance for Jon and I for road and track. For organised track days
for any cars you pay an extra £62 and 2K excess, but for MNR club days its free insurance and 1K excess and we would not need exclusive use of a
track, all for about £270 each a year
And the club just has to exist, ie not have to be audited/accredited etc.

Is that £270 fully comp for the year with an R1? Or just track day cover?
Good effort on the investigations!

That is £270 as half of £540 for the two of us, one as a named driver. I don't know how much for one owner.
HIC have also confirmed a named driver will have same cover for track days.
The £270/£540 includes normal road and track events organised by any car club of which you are a member, days organised by cosher track organisations
are an extra £62 per day extra.
HIC charge nothing extra for any day but haven't read small print yet!

Sorry, fully comp with R1 on a classic policy so you don't need to use your no claims.
