MG, Made in Abingdon: Echoes from the shopfloor

Gives accounts of events and how people reacted in the family of MG workers. Not really a history of the car and it's evolution.

MGs and early British sports cars were the cars of my youth. At 67 I've owned, driven, maintained and enjoyed a few MGBs. I have also purchased a number of MG books over the years. I especially enjoyed this book because of its more intimate telling of the people behind the cars. If you are a die hard MG enthusiast you will appreciate this book.

It brought me back 40 years when I walked down Abington production line on tour with my Son, Great!

Great little book!

Some great stories about the men and women who produced our beloved MGs.

Great read!

Very fragmented and repetitive writing style. At times unstructured. Insufficient background information for a newby to the subject matter.

Just ok

Great content -- Lots of interesting MG works stories never told before. This book is a good read for fans of early MG's. The unfortunate aspect of this book is that publisher Veloce has gone way too far in their attempt to create "value" books. This has become a hallmark of what Veloce are doing these days -- lots of really "cheap" bindings. The binding is so stiff that the book will not lay open. You have to hold it with two hands to read it. Personally, I would greatly prefer to pay a few more quid for better quality.

Very interesting to read more from those who worked at Abingdon.

Good book, well written and informative.

Nice book with lots of info inc.

Ein geniales Sachbuch mit Topinformation!
