A little early, I know :D

2010 rally now booked:

The 36th UK (inter)National MicroCar Rally
will be held in Malvern, 2-5 September 2010


The rally will be based at the Three Counties Showground in Malvern, Worcestershire, set against the spectacular backdrop of the Malvern Hills, an area of outstanding beauty famed for those dramatic hills and for the pure spring water that flows from them.

Organised by Nick Haddon & Ray Dilks on behalf of the Heinkel Trojan Club, the rally will include the usual combination of road runs and then "show day" on the Sunday, with prizes in the concours and other competitions.

More details will be published here when available.  If you have questions meanwhile, please contact:

Nick:   [email protected] or 0121 5850094, or
Ray:    [email protected] or 01773 782688

Hopefully we shall be going.  Been to that showground before for 2CVGB 50 years of the 2CV, it is a great showground.  We even did a convoy up the Mavern hills, fantastic!

Just spoken to Nick.

As Pete said booking is required for the visit to the Morgan factory as they have 40 people going, more will require another guide.

The rest is pretty much just a case of pitching-up and one doesn't necessarily have to do the runs but it is something to do rather than just sitting about.

Nick was pretty excited at the prospect of more 126's coming this year, I hope you all who have said you will come will still come.

I expect to be there for the start through till Sunday, I leave for Italy on Monday so don't want to cut it too fine.

Just Can't understand why club126uk members don't come and support the club at this national event ??? There must be at least 50 members that live 1 to 2 hours away, Everything is laid on food, drink, and activities. The only thing you have to do is enjoy your weekend [-/

Here are some pictures.





































Well Maybe Next Year

Well just to confirm that we were actually there, our white BIS G136 LWF is JUST visible next to one of the two Zundaps (and if you weren't there, you probably don't know what a Zundap looks like - two at the same rally is a happening!). It was another great National. This was our first National with the BIS, in previous years we've taken the Messerschmitt or the Goggomobil. Such a shame so few 126s turned up as we'd have liked to meet with more fellow owners. With the exception of Peter's car (it was good to meet you, Peter), the other 126s all belonged to rally regulars and friends who are also members of other clubs. There was one 500 (an F, I think), just restored but sadly minus a spark plug which blew out, and a very nice 600F, which is the first one I've seen for many years. Why is the National not better supported? We even managed to get nine Fiats - 500s and 126s - at the East Anglian Microcar Club rally in Norfolk earlier this year.
We're still in Malvern just up the road at a Caravan Club CL for two weeks and we'll be touring the area in the BIS.
As Peter says, there is always next year..........

The thing is you can't always be RELIANT on people as their word is not always their BOND  :oops:
Although I have been a TROJAN in the past if  ISSETTA a tent down there I would feel a bit of a BERKLEY in the cold  ::)
Also look at all those BUGS in the field & I am sure I could see a FOX sneaking up on a KITTEN  :(
Reckon the SMART guys were in those cosy camper vans  ;)
