Jessopia74 Posted April 9, 2023 Posted April 9, 2023 Welcome John. Plenty of info, top tip join as web membership as there is tons of info that’s hidden from non club members that Will definitely help you in the future if you want to search for technical info on older posts etc. You will then also get access to the FB omoc group. Think it’s £20 for the year, not much considering the info you get access to. 1 Quote

Irmscher Man Posted April 17, 2023 Posted April 17, 2023 Well you will get coverage on the club Liability insurance scheme, so you can attended club events like Sywell and other local shows. I know that’s only any use of you are a “car show” type of person, which not everyone is. Full members also get the club magazine twice a year through the post and you get free valuations from the new club scheme. A few extra benefits for an additional fiver, which lets face it is the price of a pint and a bag of crisps! 🤣 1 Quote

True - I think last time I looked it was £4.80 at my local for a pint of Hooky but most beers and the posh lagers were def over a fiver.......it would have to be Space Raiders and a pint of slops! 🤣 2 Quote

It's not all bad if you want to travel back in time to the late 70's. 😁 Edited April 18, 2023 by TheRealExile Quote
