Not the sort of thing you hear too often now, with them being de-funct and everything. However there is a load of MG special editions and race edition cars going under the hammer at www.wyleshardy.com on the 25th.

There is some special stuff on offer as well, the normal thing's like T shirts and clothing are on offer, but the juicy stuff is towards the end of the auction, with specialist one off cars available; how about an MGTF '500' a special edition one off track car with Cosworth power and a hard top? or a ZT V8 a 480Bhp Belcup Endurance race car, less powerful but just as rare is a MGTF Supersport a one of design concept. There is also a clutter of Group N rally cars and the odd truck or two. One of the truly special things available is the MG 'Bonneville 98 5.0L Land Speed Record Attempt Project Car,was built to compete at 50th Anniversary at Bonneville Salt Flats and the MG 'Bonneville 97 1.4' Project Car Driven by Terry Killborne from the USA the car achieved a top speed of 217.4mph.

There is also a few of the ill fated X-Power SV-R supercars (and the donor car to the project, the QVale Mangusta).

There will also be a live webcast of the event, so get saving now for your slice of English nostalgia
