Re: I PASSED!

Congrats on passing

Driving a manual car in my opinion is so much more fun and engaging . And driving a morris minor is even more fun and engaging. I just love to take my moggy out for a spin. Everyone looks and smiles when I drive her. Happy motoring.

Re: Spin on oil filter makes to choose from

Thanks for the reply the video looks interesting and it shows some differences between the filters

I personally use Mann filters for my daily car a Vw golf as they are oem and Vw use them from factory so will probably use them in the future for my morris minor, but this is personal choice.
