The SVW Register is part of the MG Car Club. Anyone owning a SVW car who is a member of that club is automatically a member of the SVW Register at no extra cost.
Many overseas owners are members of Affiliated Centres to the MG Car Club, but are not members of the MG Car Club itself. The SVW range of cars are relatively rare, it is therefore beneficial for all owners of SVW MGs to be members of the UK MG Car Club to enjoy and reap the benefits of the SVW Register. These include receiving a free copy of our yearbook, the SVW Review.
The SVW Review contains interesting technical articles, restoration stories, news of major events, details of specialist suppliers, and much more. It is comprehensively illustrated.
To notify us about your car and to check production details, email us at info@svwregister.co.uk. We can tell you when your car left the production line, its original engine number, and, in all probability, details of previous owners, although only with their consent.
Club membership
The MG Car Club was founded in 1930 and the principle objective remains “to initiate and provide opportunities, advice and cost effective practical assistance to motoring enthusiasts world wide, enabling them to acquire, restore, maintain and drive MG cars, safely and legally for leisure and competition in static displays, trials and races.”
Members of the MG Car Club receive a monthly magazine ‘Safety Fast’ in which Centres and Registers run features together with news from all UK and Overseas activities, technical reports, general articles and coverage of MG meetings and events.
There are three ways SVW owners outside the UK can join the MG Car Club UK, of which the SVW Register is part.
- If you wish to receive a hard copy of the monthly club magazine, Safety Fast!, you can join at a cost of £85 per annum, or £90 for joint membership.
- If you are happy to have access to the monthly magazine on-line (digital) and are NOT a member of a local MG Club that is affiliated to the UK MG Car Club, you can join for £50, or £54 for joint membership.
- If you are happy to have access to the monthly magazine on-line (digital) and you ARE a member of a local MG Club that is affiliated to the UK MG car Club, you can join at 50% of the UK rate of £60, i.e. at £30. There is a special euro rate for members inside the EU, currently 35 euros.
The Overseas section of the MG Car Club website tells you which local clubs are affiliated with the UK Club at https://www.mgcc.co.uk/overseas2/. You will be required to provide evidence that you are indeed a member of the local affiliated club if you wish to take advantage of that scheme. The Overseas section also explains who to contact to join.

SVW owners who are not members of the MG Car Club
Even if you do not belong to the MGCC, we want to know about you and your car(s). This has enabled us to build the most exhaustive database of the cars and their owners in existence. To notify us about your car and to check production details, email us at info@svwregister.co.uk.
You can buy a copy of the SVW Review, our annual magazine from the MGCC shop. The current price is £10 plus P&P. Back issues in complete sets are also available directly from the Register. See our SVW Shop for details on how to order.
