Morris Minor Owners Club

After two years of we finaly got to the event and were the only Morris on the Sunday
It's a brillant event and well worth going to.
Anyone else make it on Saturday?

Confirmation yesterday that it is now off :( "New guidance was issued by government on Tuesday 6 April which contradicts the previous position that spectators would be permitted at non-elite sport events from Step Two of the roadmap (12 April onwards). Regrettably, that means the Donington Hist...

Oh no, I've just bought tickets. This is their statement from the 5th https://news.donington-park.co.uk/statement-5-march.aspx but I fear you may be right. I was due to be racing that weekend but it was pulled as the local council wouldn't grant a licence to hold the event until after the 17th. If i...

That's me booked for the Sunday and I can hardly believe it - somewhere to actually go!
So looking forward to a day out at DHF in the moggy and not a german motorhome

If he sits on a booster his head would be over the back of the chair which doesn't have any head rest. So you ...

I have a Mk2 English axle under mine. More choices on ratio's, stronger halfshafts, limited slip diffs, brake upgrades and all at not too an excessive price. Also being 4 stud ford 108pcd Citroen, Peugeot and I believe some Saab & Audi wheels will fit. Go much above 200bhp though and you'll need...

Only attended on Sunday but had a great day.

Thank you and well done to all everyone who organised it

This is terrible. Very sad and sorry to see what's happened to your car. Hopefully it wont be too long before you're back on the road.

I was following your woe on the otherside and I'm really sorry to hear that. Gutted for you but there'll always be another event.

Another one for Sunday

re designs of old cars would be so much better if germans werent involved! I agree. Some of the new mini concepts like the Paceman & scooter are horrible and I think that the problem is that it's German interpretation of British style. That said this is probably as close to a new Minor you're g...

its ok cheers, i think im going to get some steel wheels banded :) Do you know about Citroen C5 steel wheels? I discovered that are actually alloys that look like steels. 15inch, 4 stud 108 pcd, ET18 and 4.7kg a wheel. They're fairly rare but may be worth hunting some down. I bought this set last w...

It's a little bit further on than this but I still wont be driving it anywhere this week

Does anyone know who did these amazing pieces and/or who to contact regarding them? They were done by Steve Kirk and were used in a Street Machine Magazine feature called Motorvation. There's a few more on here http://retrorides.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=74...

I was going to do mine satin black until I started looking into it properly. I thought it wouldn't be a problem if it's just a temporary measure but then I knew it wouldn't be that temporary. With the blue base you could go for period race car look or do scallops and save yourself the hassle of a fu...

I think Pembrey holds a historic event too

Just been reading the bit about has the custom register died ??? Everybody should lighten up we all come on this forum with one common interest ?? MORRIS MINORS :D Hear hear. Have some gassers :D http://i52.tinypic.com/1zqwx00.jpg http://i51.tinypic.com/fc61ix.jpg http://www.supermotors.net/getfile...

May I make a suggestion. Rather than messing about with the National rally why not arrange an informal meet at a small circuit with good viewing for a Classic Saloon or Historic racing event and see who turns up. Seems obvious to me and it doesn't have to be circuit racing. There are plenty of event...

Matt or Satin have been done to death over the last few years, it'll also look **** after a few weeks and you'll end up wanting to paint it again properly.
