Apologies if this has been covered previously, but I’m trying to sign up to the MMOC. It is prompting me to either log in or set up a new account. I set up an account when I joined the forum but that log in doesn’t work… so do I need to set up an entirely new account in order to join the club (paid membership)?

Aah ok that’s fine. Didn’t want to duplicate my account if I don’t need to, thanks for clarifying

Yes, it's 2 different places, the MMOC Website and the Message Board.

Yes, welcome aboard Mrs. Smith.
I would like to make a general point about owners' clubs. They play an important part in sustaining our hobby in that every member of an affiliated club is another little bit of weight added to the clout that we have with Government awareness and legislation that keeps our hobby viable.
Some people think that by being a member of a free-to-join online forum or suchlike that they are a valid part of the classic car movement.
They are not.
To be more visible they need to be a paid-up member of a real owners' club. Owners clubs organise events, oversee parts availability, act as the spider's web that keep like-minded people in contact, and in conjunction with other clubs have a voice loud enough to be heard by legislative bodies.
So welcome aboard. You have made an important step. Well done.

Hear hear, well said that man!
This cannot be said enough. Facebook* is not a club, it is an online chat group on steroids.
*Other trash social media platforms exist

Thanks so much! Just waiting for my membership to process!
Didn’t know about the Halfords discount either… that’s even better!
