The home of the Historic Marathon Rally Group. The Historic Marathon Rally Group (HMRG) is a friendly UK-based network of enthusiasts dedicated to reuniting historic rally cars, competitors, service crews, and supporters from around the world. Our mission is to celebrate and promote the legendary Marathon Rallies and Classic Car Endurance events of the past while fostering a shared passion for motorsport history.
Thanks to Pete Austin for these photos from the BMC & Leyland Show at Gaydon on Sunday 1 July 2018.
See these cars and more at our forthcoming London-Sydney50 show at the British Motor Museum Gaydon on Sunday 29 July.
Hi Historic Marathon Rally Groupers – an update on London-Sydney50. We have done a review of the layout at Gaydon for London-Sydney50 and realised that we have a space which members of this group should be entitled to use. While we obviously welcome anyone with a 1960s and 1970s London-Sydney or World Cup Marathon and 1993 London-Sydney car. Or someone with any period rally car (ex-Works or private entry) from any event up to the end of the 1970s … or thereabouts… if not already in touch please do so (e-mail below). In addition if you want to bring a classic car – more recent historic rally, marathon or simply your non competition pride and joy, please e-mail me (important for keeping records) with your name and car details and I will get an HMRG pass to you for the appropriate parking area. [email protected] . Spread the word!

A Vanguard model of the London to Mexico Triumph 2000 was for sale on eBay recently.
Great weekend at MG Live with Dizzyak, Beauty Box, and Jean Denton/Tom Boyce MGB. Loads of interest and met some interesting people including the Managing Editor of an Indian motor sport magazine who will be doing a feature on our London-Sydney50 where the Bomsi Wadia Cortina Lotus from 1968 still resides. Thanks to John Watson who set it up, David Scothorn for organising, Andrew Newman for helping, and Pat Walker (Beauty Box) and Adrian Bonner (Dizzyak).
