iImportant changes for VSCC and IRC competitive events.  Although  MAFCGB is not directly affiliated to MotorSport UK many members take part in  MUK governed events run by  the VSCC and Inter-Register Club.  Starting on 1st January 2020 MUK is introducing the requirement for all competitors in MUK events to hold a new RS Clubman licence (as a minimum).  These changes will affect Autotests, Trials, Cross Country, Road Rallying, 12 Cars Rallies and Scatters. If you participate as a driver, bouncer, navigator or even passenger in one of these events you will  need to be in possession of  a RS Clubman licence. Th RS Clubman licence can be applied for by anyone, online, it's  a relatively straightforward, takes about two minutes,  and what's more it's free... go to this link https://rsclubman.motorsportuk.org/

Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the website of the Model A Ford Club of Great Britain (MAFCGB).  

The Club caters for owners, prospective owners, enthusiasts and devotees of the Ford Model A, AF, AA, B, BF and BB built from 1927 to 1934.

We provide help and information as well as being the British network for exchange of knowledge, assistance and spare parts for these vehicles.

Our award winning magazine "Quail", published every two months, has articles, letters, for sale/wants adverts and technical tips.

We organise events and tours which provide a sociable, friendly atmosphere focused around historic cars; all the family are welcome.

Moreover the Club is a member of the Inter-Register Club (IRC) so all our members can participate in the IRC events nationwide. The IRC events are for pre-war vehicles and form a framework of social driving days with a lighthearted, mildly competitive element.  See the events page for the list for this year.

The Club  is listed with the DVLA as an Authorised Club and offers a dating, authentication  and certification service which is recognised by the DVLA.  

And we can help with details of cars and provide help for those researching the history of their vehicles.

We are affiliated to the Federation of British Historic Vehicle Clubs .
