Morris Minor Owners Club

I actually think a "modern" Minor could work and I think it'd sell very well. Of course you won't get the same experience with it, nor should anyone expect to, but with all the common, boxy cars we get today, something retro-styled would appeal to a large portion of drivers, young and old....

Shifting the last stock must have been quite hard and probably called for some deep discounting.

Mine is 442 away from that number!

I was over a few weeks ago and noticed just how bad they are now. Once I used to say that roads in Eastern Europe were the worst but with the exception of Hungary, Eastern European roads are better than they are in the UK! Hungary is possible the only country that is on par with the UK for terrible ...

As someone who is not a timewaster, I'm not put off in the slightest if I read such a thing in an advert. I will merely expect to meet a seller who has been turned over buy an unscruptulous buyer in the past. I try not to judge too early but if a seller is aggressive then I walk away.

A time waster is usually someone who is not serious about buying, sometimes called a "test pilot" who just wants to drive your car for free and waste your time. I was stung by such an oik once, when selling a Camaro, and I could have battered him. Putting "no timewasters" in my a...

Hi Gang Yet another old thread resurrection but I've got myself some repair panels that were made by LMC Hadrian who, I have learned, went out of business about 15-years ago. What I'm asking for is whether anyone has a parts catalogue of theirs from which I can reference the parts I have. I've got a...

It looked really nice 12-years ago and would probably been worth at least 3k then.

I'm not sure how anyone on here could give a meaningful estimate without seeing overall condition but I'd recommend that you find a similar few on eBay and that should give you a rough idea of what they sell for today.

The hardest football pitch I ever played on was made of crushed bricks and broken lumps of concrete.
We won 3 - 2 on aggregate.

What does "fronting" mean?

My teenage children were put on as named drivers on a policy taken out by my wife. She has a licence but doesn't drive so this has worked out the best we could hope for. Taking an AIM course will also bring your policy price down as would limiting your mileage (that might be a given anyway, dependin...

I think most of us will agree that we don't, and should not, expect a mint condition car even if the exterior looks fantastic. Expect to do a few jobs and budget for them. We can always find excuses not to do something but ultimately you are treating yourself to something you are going to love. You'...

A man was admitted to hospital yesterday with 25 plastic toy horses inserted in to his rectum.

Doctors have described his condition as stable.

Lovely looking car. Which part of the country are you in? I might know where there is an exhaust pipe going cheap.

Awesome. Not sure if I can just nip over the pond for a trip the car museum but my wife does have friends in Florida so maybe when we visit them...

I confirm that marder are a problem in rural areas. I've bought an ultrasonic device and some lemon smelly sticks for under the bonnet of my daily car. I also bought some plastic spikey mat for my parking space to try to keep them and cats off my car. One of the little büggers chewed up the under-bo...

There's a fairly heavily modified pickup not far away from me. I expect it was done in the UK because it's still RHD. If it'd had all this work done in Germany you'd expect the steering conversion would have been too. Not my taste but i can imagine it would appeal to some. https://www.kleinanzeigen....

Fantastic! Fitting all the parts back on to a body in this condition sounds like a lot of enjoyment.

We mustn't fall into the trap of assuming that if you remove the exhaust, there is no pollution. Over complication, fashion/ and vanity (In my view the most popular "Hobby") have meant that even cycling isn't the "Green" pastime that it was and could be. The batteries, used in e...

Looks like it made the top 5 so I've cast a vote for it today, even though I've never seen it.
