Morris Minor Owners Club

I think it's plain to see somewhat of a 'storm in a tea-cup', which will probably have little or no effect to the UK status quo. The rest of Europe may come off not so well - and use of our classic cars in other member countries might become slightly more difficult) Roger politicians are like burgl...

I've just read this thread all the way from the beginning and really enjoyed seeing Sidney come together - well done.

Karma.

I've been told that rubbing chrome with aluminium tinfoil has the desired effect without the abrasion. Obviously no good for rusty or pitted chrome but may work on the smooth stuff.

Hi Roger. Agenda 21 is the UN's program for 'sustainability' which covers all areas of human activity and it's potential for impact on the environment. On the surface this appears to relate only to so called sustainable development and ecological matters, but the wider implications of this program a...

I'm new here so I wasn't aware that replying to a post about politics in the other thread was a No No. :oops: I make it a rule never to venture into the 'off topic' area of a forum for that very reason, as I prefer to stick on topic as it were. In this case however, a political ruling from Brussels ...

Happy hunting and good luck with your future purchase. I've abandoned moderns for everyday Morris usage too. Best wishes, Mike. Thanks Mike. The standard drivers seat is adjustable, and there are 2 sets of holes in the floor to mount both front seats (to allow extra leg room). I'm 6ft5 and 19 (ish)...

Smoke grey 2 door on a C reg on Runshaw lane, Euxton, Lanc's this afternoon. Very nice it was too.

Great, that's all good then! Markyb yes I was in the 2cv club, but apart from the UK national meetings I didn't get further afield. I've been looking at a site that holds an annual Scarborough to Morecambe run in September (I think?) and I'd quite like to go on that this year if possible. I must say...

Thanks I'll look out for that shop. I'll join the MMOC too I think.
I Found answers to most of the questions I had by using the search, the only question left concerns tall drivers. As I understand it the drivers seat is not adjustable? I'm 6ft and 16 stone - will I fit?

David I live just a couple of miles south of Leyland. Are you a MMOC member? Irmscher thank you, yes I shall be rather careful when I buy. Unfortunately I've never been very good at biding my time so have on occasion jumped the gun when buying cars only to be disappointed. I'll try harder this time...

Thanks for the welcome fella's. db6431 There are two Minors local to me that I see scooting along the A49 quite often. One is an original condition green or blue 2 door (I've only ever seen it at night) and the other an immaculate white estate car. As I only do about 6000 miles a year I'm hoping a M...

Hello all. :D Introductory post from a new forum member, so you might want to make a brew and get the digestives out as it'll take a while. I'm Joe, I've been driving for nearly 40 years during which time I've owned lots of different cars. Some of the more recent cars I've owned are considered 'clas...
