MG TD TF 1500 - Please vote for my Y-type!

My employer DLL Athlon Car Lease will celebrate their 100 year jubilee with a tour of 100 km with 100 cars ranging from 1916 to 2016.

Of course I'd like to be part of that tour in the Y-type and one of the criteria is the amount of 'likes' on the tour website.

So please like my 1950 MG Y-type on this website: http://www.tourofthecentury.com/en/

A lot more cars have been added since I voted. Believe it or not a Tesla leads the pack as I write on Jan. 14 with 173 votes!

How boring! Teslas are a dime a dozen these days. There are usually half a dozen in my work parking lot.

Thanks for your votes and replies in 'Dutch' thus far. The count is now 129 and I think that's the highest of the 'real' votes.

Your enthusiasm has already earned me an article in the corporate magazine on me and my car, so thanks again.

There are 2 cars with more than a 1000 votes but I suspect faul play? I can believe that a TVR Chimarea 400 would draw votes, but not a 2015 Renault Clio Estate! :-)

BTW: I discovered that the system accepts multiple 'likes' if you wait a few days with your extra 'like'.......

As said in the beginning of the thread, the aim of the tour is to drive 100 kms with 100 cars ranging from 1916 to 2016.
Today I heard that the aim is also to try and break/set a (world?)record with 100 different makes, so now I'm contacting all my Dutch classic car friends to urge them to enter their exclusive makes (no extra MG's of course!).

I had a YB when I was 18, over 50 years ago, so naturally I voted for the Y Type. My YB was my daily driver and was a fabulous first car. I salvaged it from the wreckers yard and spent all my weekends visiting many wreckers yards to scavenge parts to make it run and be road-worthy. It was a great learning experience

My 1955 TF 1500 has the same Chasis as the YB but shortened by 5 inches, the same engine and transmission basics but the engine bored out to 1500cc and the same suspension as the YB. As I move into my second childhood I purchased the TF in memory of my YB and the pleasure I got from salvaging and driving it. I did look to buy a YB but found the TF locally and I am having a Blast with it
