For those who couldn’t make it to our recent 20th birthday gathering, we’re happy to present this excellent video of the event produced in two parts by John Clancy.
It’s a double-header as the event was very much broken up into two parts – the tour of the museum, followed by the Q&A session with Kevin Jones, Denis Chick, Ian Pogson and our very own Mike Humble.
The AROnline 20th birthday gathering – Part One
In Part One, we begin with Steve Cropley’s thoughts on AROnline and what it means to him before moving seamlessly on to a tour of the museum’s reserve collection and a close look at some of its best exhibits.
The AROnline 20th birthday gathering – Part Two
In this part, we start with Steve Cropley asking what Harold Musgrove was like to work for – the recollections of panel were pure gold. Enjoy…

Great videos and very informative too, especially in relation to Harold Musgrove, even though I still feel uncomfortable hearing the story about the sudden departure of David Bache (a man whose work I have long admired). Also interesting to hear Dr Ian Pogson’s view of John Towers and Kevin’s explanation in relation to the ownership of MG Rover Group, both of which are a genuine reality check against the armchair romanticism many enthusiasts have about ‘our’ company.
Thank you for sharing these.
Really enjoyed the vids, thank you. Denis Chick seems a great character – and I love his description of the SD1 as a Rover Ford Cortina, what with the cost-cutters in the background when it was designed.
