A bit off piste on this ancient thread, but the last time I was at the new Wembley Stadium - to watch a football match, about ten years ago - there were two Gordon England Sevens displayed on one of the upper floors, suspended/mounted on the wall/ceiling... Does anyone know if they are still there, and are they on the Register? (I can't remember which models but presumably a Cup and a Stadium?). Shame they are not 'on the road' and being used.
True satisfaction is the delayed fulfilment of ancient wish

The Stadium belongs to Val Brookes and is very much being used, the display was a temporary one, I forget what it was for however.
If you have a photo of the other car I may be able to add more detail...

Hi This is the Cup that was at Wembley Stadium. Ruairidh should have the owners details.
Perhaps the GE Register should have a 100th Anniversary Memorial Rally in 2025? ( or was it later Tom Abernethy?)at Wembley Stadium?
We could drive round the Pitch like the Morris Minors did at the Commonwealth Games :-)
All the best

That looks to be James A’s car - normally on display at Brooklands I think, he will confirm for sure.

Hi Mike
So are you suggesting Le Mans or Boulogne
as the most appropriate venue :-)
Someone could write to the Le Mans organisers or just the Mayor?
All the best

There is always more convenient Bolton - twinned with Le Mans... and has a particularly nice civic area (as everyone who has watched Top Gear will know).
