==Founding==
The first club meeting took place on 12 October 1930, at the Roebuck Hotel near Stevenage, with over thirty MG cars and their owners coming together. F.L.M. Harris was General Secretary of the M.G. Car Club and editor of ''The Sports Car'', which suspended publication at the outbreak of World War II. Earlier he was editor of the ''The Light Car'' : "Mine was the decision that caused a letter to be published in "The Light Car" suggesting the formation of an M.G. Car Club, and its inaugural meeting at the "Roebuck," Broadwater, was held within a couple of miles of my house." 〔''Motor Sport'', June 1940, Pages 97-98.〕 The suggestion came from a Roy Marsh, of Highbury, London.〔''The Light Car'', September 5, 1930.〕
The company (MG) had adopted a new sales slogan, 'Safety Fast!' late in the 1930s, and two words it seemed to embody the marque's appeal. About the same time a group of enthusiastic owners had formed the M.G Car Club.
