Register Statistics
Register Statistics – january, 2013
At least once a year I write an article updating how the NAMGAR family is growing. Each year I have not been disappointed. That family is all those new members, and those that choose to stay with this great association of MGA loyalists. It is the ever growing evolution of NAMGAR. Some members choose not to renew their memberships for various reasons, but the “core” is a very loyal group, and the Board and I all thank you.
Last year (2012) NAMGAR added 125 new members. The MGA car database now has 8,078 cars listed, with 3,941 MGAs, 227 Magnettes, and 16 Variants belonging to current members. The remaining cars once belonged to members, or were entered in the database as parts cars, and once there, they never leave my database.
Is your information current? I know I ask that quite often, but I work hard to keep your information as correct and current as I can, so I ask you often. All that is needed is to log into your records via the NAMGAR website, use your last name and membership number if it’s your first time, or your email and password you have already set up, and check to see what NAMGAR has on record for you. Your membership number can be found on the label of your copy of MGA! directly above your name, followed by the expiration date of your membership. I encourage you to review your information online occasionally to ensure I am keeping your records up-to-date.
I am also sending out renewal notices via email, so now more than ever, it is important that I have a current email address on record for you. When I receive new information, I update your records as quickly as I can. I then go to the NAMGAR website and update the records, so you can verify the information. Please allow a few days after you submit your changes for me to get them back on the web for your review.
NAMGAR still has the “three for free” program in place. Many of you are “sitting on the bubble” as the saying goes, so keep encouraging your fellow MGA owners to come join our fine group of enthusiasts.
Help me update the records please. Do I have the correct color of your car? Do I have the correct model of your car?
Safe and happy motoring’s.
