WIN The First MG TF LE500 off the line!

That's correct Allan.

There are 850 tickets. A ticket cost £20 and all you have to do is to answer the question;

MG was first formed in 1924, but what do the letters MG stand for?
A.) Maurice Garage.
B.) Morris Garages.
C.) Morris Garage.

Send your answer, A, B or C and your name, address and contact telephone number along with a cheque for £20.00 to Summit Garage (Dudley) Ltd at 413-415, Himley Road, Lower Gornal, Dudley, DY3 2RA, OR ring on 01384 259555 option 4 and give your answer A, B or C and your name address and a contact telephone number and pay by debit or credit card.

£1000 from the proceeds of this competition have already been donated to Macmillan Cancer Support by John Newey.

It would be fantastic if a T-Bar member won this car, so come on ladies and gents, let's see if we can tip the odds in favour of a T-Bar owner for No.1 of 500. Not many times you get the chance to win a historically significant for £20.

Well, we're upto 550 entries so far and in answer to previous questions, we need 850 entries to complete the draw. We've just launched a new website www.summitgarage.co.uk and recently started on Facebook and Twitter. I'd like to thank everyone who has already entered the competition and to ask those who have not yet got round to it yet...get on the phone, 01384 259555 (option 4), email to [email protected], or by post to Summit Garage (Dudley) Ltd, 413-415, Himley Road, Lower Gornal, Dudley, DY3 2RA. I've donated £1000 to Macmillan Cancer Support as part of the proceeds and you are all welcome to have as many entries as you like. Cheers John Newey

You may wish to check out dot org, theres a thread started today which has already reached 8 pages. Theres a lot of angry people concerned of the legitimacy of the competition and whether you will ever do the draw., this competition is ruining the reputation of your dealership, the MG community is very close knit and the kind of rumours and speculation being brandished around on dot org could do you irreparable damage........You need to set a date and stick to it, sooner rather than later.

:lol: Epic! for multiple reasons. :lol:

I wouldn't say a lot of angry people... Just a couple of trolls that funnily enough have no posts until today... Just probably a regulary update or a hi type thing would keep the trolls at bay

Trolls or not, there are some significant points being made.

The raffle was originally to be held in June and was then inexplicably changed to a date in the future that even the organiser can't accurately predict.

What happens if the target is never reached?

What happens if the car is accidentally damaged / destroyed between now and the unpredictable future date?

Defo some significant points, but they were probably all made in the first 6-8 pages...

It would suck if you won it and it got destroyed on the way to you

I don't have a dog in this race as I decided not to buy a ticket due to the seemingly endless stretchy draw date. There is some ire being expressed on .org as has been stated. I have my opinions on this saga I must admit, but not being a ticket holder I'd best keep 'em to meself!

:dry: Was that your 'good point' contribution there then Jay? :lol:

John, you can make your comments, we wont hold them against you. :tapfoot:

My impression of the F/TF community is that it's uniquely friendly, tight knit and a damn small world where people look out for each other.

Bearing this in mind and coupled with the bad publicity for the draw which was exacerbated by clumsy moderation on .Cult, who now will purchase the remaining 320 tickets and within what time frame.

Just don't let Goldie buy one. She tends to win everything!
