PARTS & SALVAGE DIRECTORY


To coincide with CARS2016, which will be taking place at Donington Park Circuit on 13-14th July 2016, MVDA will be launching its annual Parts & Salvage Directory.

This will be available as a paper supplement to the MVDA magazine & will also be downloadable from the MVDA website.


All members will have a free 'basic' advert (outlining their location, contact details & services offered etc.) but there will be the opportunity to upgrade to 1/4, 1/2 or full page adverts.


Members will also have the opportunity to order multiple copies for their own use.


Feel free to contact us if you have any ideas for the Directory.
