New Magnette Register President

Although we’ll never be able to replace Lou Shorten and her unique style, we’re delighted that Celia Palmer has agreed to step into the gap as Register President.

Celia has already met many members, as her first guest appearance was at GP100, our 2011 event to celebrate the centenary of her father, Magnette designer Gerald Palmer (she still lives in the family home in Oxford that Gerald built). Since 2011 she’s joined us at several other events, where she’s always fascinating to talk to and interested in our cars.

Celia has already had some practice presenting trophies (including at Magnette60) and apart from that her duties as President will be fairly light, but it’s a privilege to have her formally associated with the Register.

David Halliday has provided a report and photos of the Kop Hill Climb event, where Magnettes were taking part both in the classics display and in the climb itself. You can also see a short video of the view from Anthony White's ZA as it went up the hill (taken by Stephen Tickell as passenger - Anthony is putting together a more complete version from his on-car cameras)
