MG enthusiasts have set a new world record for the largest parade of cars made by the brand.

A total of 144 MGs gathered at the Rockingham racetrack in Corby, Northamptonshire, on Sunday, 11 April 2015.

Organised by Lancaster Insurance, the parade took place on the Rockingham oval with an official Guinness World Records adjudicator on-hand to confirm the new record.

Richard Morley, Lancaster Insurance’s Operations Director, said: ‘We’re immensely proud to have set a brand new Guinness World Records title with the help of MG enthusiasts from all over the country.

‘This would not have been possible without the support of the MG community. We are thrilled to have created a piece of history as a group.’
