Hi Everyone,

As the title suggest, “Thruxton Historic” has now evolved into “Thruxton Retro” and will now be a much bigger event for everyone to enjoy :+1:

For full details on how to obtain your MX5OC discounted tickets, please head over to the MX5OC Calendar at the link provided below, where you will find all the information you require for obtaining your discounted tickets, as MX5OC members.
Welcome to the MX-5 Owners Club - MX-5 Owners Club

Excellent news! This was great last year, and the year before…
Thanks for organising, tickets bought.

Hi Mal,
Tickets for Lynn and I bought for the three days as this is a great event. The OC discount was greater than the annual Club membership fee so another example of the many benefits of being a member!!

I have just been online and purchased my ticket for the sunday only, as we have another commitment on the Saturday.

The process was quick and simple, as per the instructions provided, so all good there :+1:

Good morning Howard,

I checked this out on the Thruxton Website and you are quite correct.

I have added a note to the text to point out a ticket is required to be purchased per person :+1:

Hi Everyone,

For info, I emailed Ian Hindmarsh (Web Admin) as the event was not displaying correctly in the MX5OC Calendar and we also wished to share this event to other neighbouring areas calendars.

Ian has kindly fixed this for us, as this is a back end task, so not something an AC would currently be able to do at the moment.

This method shows it on the area calendars as an event ‘owned’ by another area and does not create duplicate entries in the main calendar which is obviously a good thing :smiley:

The event is now presented as 3 x 1 day events, rather than one event spanning 3 days.

Best Regards

Hi Everyone,

We have had the first update from Elaine Jell, from the Thruxton Team on ticket sales for this event, as follows;

The first bookings report for the Thruxton Retro (up to 8th May) shows 10 cars booked to attend with your club. Attending as 2 Friday, 3 Saturday and 9 Sunday (includes 2 who have booked the Three-Day tickets). As the event is less than six weeks away I will keep you updated on your club’s bookings.

Please remind club members they can choose to attend on one, two or all three days of the event and benefit from discounted tickets and club display parking. To obtain discounted tickets they need to visit the car club booking page Thruxton Retro - Car Clubs 2025 and make sure they input your club’s discount code MX5OC251TR and click the APPLY button to activate the discount.

If you have not done so already, please book your tickets soonest, to take advantage of the MX5OC Discount👍

Best Regards

Team Solent
