Welcome to the
MG Car Club Geelong Inc

About Our Club

First established in 1973, our club boasts a membership of over 500. Owning an MG is not a prerequisite and anyone is welcome to join. The MG’s in the club range from a rare 1930 M-type through to the modern MGF, and there is a healthy mix of other classic cars amongst our ranks – Healeys, Jaguars, Triumphs and so on. If you are a classic car lover and want to share your passion, consider joining our club. We also welcome owners of the new model MGs, as a number of our members have purchased these new and exciting vehicles. The club prides itself on its friendly social atmosphere. The club holds regular monthly meetings and issues a monthly magazine free as part of the membership. We meet at 7:30pm on the first Tuesday of every month. (Currently broadcast also via Zoom). The clubrooms are at the Geelong Traffic Safety Centre, 96-150 Breakwater Rd, Breakwater, opposite the Geelong Showgrounds.

MG Motors Virtual Show and Shine

At the recent Executive Committee meeting, it was decided to advertise an upcoming event sponsored by MG Motor Australia. This is not an official MGCC Geelong event, but advising members of it will allow individuals to take part should they wish to do so. The event involves MG Motor Australia holding a virtual Show and Shine for owners of the MG Marque. This year’s Show and Shine will run for a month and will be completely virtual, with every vehicle submitted earning Australian Red Cross a $30 donation from MG Motor. The company invites its owners and enthusiasts, to get involved and submit their MG. To take part visit: https://mgmotor.com.au/show-and-shine-entry/
