2012 |
Andrew Watson |
Andrew brought a dilapidated MGF and set about creating an individual car with plenty of neons!. Crashed the car earlier in 2012 colliding with a tree which would normally have been a write off so It Could Have Been a Better Day. Instead of being a write off though the car has now been transformed for a second time |

John & Lyn Ponting |
John & Lyn's TF was written off following an accident on the Luxembourg ring road on route for the 2014 Tour de Lux. Very soon after John replaced the TF with a LE500, which shortly after purchase, was hit by a people carrier, LE500 is now repaired and back on the road. |

2016 |
Michael & Marion Murkin |
Michael & Marion Murkin were driving back from the German Neiderrhein Tour and were crossing Belgium with only a short distance to go to the ferry and unfortunately their TF was hit by a car coming towards them. Nearly every panel on the car was damaged and the car was a complete right off. A sad way for a car to end its life but it looked after its occupants really well. |

This award is created from Register Chairman Tim Morris's blown head gasket and is given to someone who really could have had a better day!
