Morris Minor Owners Club

New to the forum and just swapping my saloon for this traveller. It has chassis number MAVS1288897 (though suspect it's W5) registered on 17 Jun 1971. I have the V5 with previous owners and the data from DVLA on history and MOT... And that's it! Adderley Park build so no heritage history. It was re...

If you're quite sure there's nothing left creating the smell (e.g. under the back seat or something like that) and it's just lingering then a large basin of coffee granules works if you're happy to leave the car closed up for a couple of weeks to let it absorb the smells, there's also bicarbonate o...

7" back on GPO vans....

Is this applicable to civvy Minor's?

Regarding the spider query, I think female spiders can live up to about 3 years. I’ve had one living under a small stool in the kitchen for a couple of years, discovered when I needed the stool ————- I found something else to stand on ! He/she fully grown 12/23 when rescued from loo - would of froz...

3 squirells this year, may hate them but they don't don't do as much damage to the enviroment as humans do.

My bathroom spider must be approaching 3yrs old, is that normal?

Bump that request for several water bowls sprinkled about in the garden, on the floor for the hedgehogs too.

Seen it on CKD LCVs

Can anyone think of anything that is better in 2026 than it was in the seventies? Well, I could say that Life is better in 2026 since I wasn't alive in the seventies.... but health problems since the middle of last year haven't made this year overly enjoyable. It's being so cheerful that keeps us a...

Maybe someone could invent an engine powered by Sovereignty, unlimited supply of this!

Not until the cab's tilted on a truck do you appreciate how heavy the doors are

Have cars like Minor's, repair & fix cheaply, or modern stuff where a wet belt ruins the engine & its cheaper to scrap the whole car, electric cars mining lethal elements (by children) & disposal of batteries AND electricity coming from power stations....

Which is best for the enviroment?

Horses are just a commodity to those people and of course to those who support the ‘sport’. They don’t think about much else when money is involved, a lack of empathy. Much like LCVs, long gone the good fun days of cheap daily transport for young students, van's well used & barely held together...

Another poor horse dead at Aintree, how about chasing short-a@&ed jockeys around a racecourse, making THEM jump hurdles & whipping THEM when they don't go fast enough...

I'm a veggie, thought of what animals go through when beans on toast/scrambled egg or cheese on toast just as good.

It's not a little bit wrong, it's all MASSIVELY wrong!

Richard Spurr on about this night before, sounds revolting, plain bounty & roses lime marmalade going too.

Glad I'm nearer death than my 21st!

Similar to the privatised water companies, clearly able to bring them into public ownership, but for some reason the govt. refuse!
MP's promised cushy jobs after their public service?

Yes, but (at the end of the day) it's about making MORE money for the elite, "donations" from fossil fuel companies to political parties, Wes Streeting accepting "donations" from private health companies......it's ALL about the money honey

Well Chris, it’s because a long ago study found cats have been observed looking at cows and sheep and salivating at the sight, so, as they are unable to tackle such prey themselves, manufacturers have cashed in on supplying these flavours in a tin. Neither is it common to see cats fishing for Tuna,...

Drill baby drill!

Down to short term financial gain
