Re: Morris minor - what to look for and more...

Morris minor - what to look for and more...
Hi all, I am still very much interested in buying and potentially owning a morris minor. I have liked them for many years and the think the styling and overall quality adds character that you don't see anymore. I'm not completely new to classic cars and the work that can be involved.

Re: Morris Minor everyday only car?
Thank you all for your kind replies. 
My younger brother who is soon to be 17 is also showing a great interest in potential minor ownership too. Which will be nice, both travelling together in our minor's to attend a show
Wonder what the neighbors would think
Thanks again

Re: Millions of classics could be banned from roads
I've said it before, I'll say it again. If this countries reserves hit 4% and we all end up living in the dark :lol: if this country then left the EU and a state emergency was declared for people to go down the mines and such to get as much coal out as possible and get the country going again.

Re: Morris Minor and researching other classics
The abuse received was done via pm which I won't be posting for good reason's really.... Are coils on a minor a problem? or cause for concern?
