Today, please welcome Robert Newbury as the new ownwer of YB 0829 to Ys on Parade.
After selling his last MG Y a couple of years ago, Robert Pile has returned to "the fold" with his latest acquisition and shares it with us as Picture of the Month this month. Robert's car was a previously unknown survivor to us at least despite being present on the show circuit in the UK for a number of years. We were very pleased to hear Robert's news and to share it with you too.
