The 'joy' of mini ownership was complete this morning when I had to lift the bonnet and soak the electrics in WD40 to get a spark out of them!

Like it! There can't be many of those left now - you see far more Minor travellers.

Cool. Does it have a structural timber frame like the Moggy Traveller or is the wood just cosmetic?

If it doesn't work, you're not hitting it with a big enough hammer.

Ah that might help with the start although I found that the heater control valve is worn and in certain positions it sprays water over the front of the engine! cannot help thats for sure.

so off to find a new one and replace it ASAP otherwise the water will slowly pump away.

He behaved himself very well after this morning, no problem in all the rain.

My Dad used to have one of those about 25 years ago- and the same year and even a simmilar number plate SOG @#$H (can't remember the actual numbers), and for the record, his car was a COUNTRYMAN not a Traveller. Austin version vs Morris version?

I would like one for very cheap for a full resto. (year after next, not just yet).
Cheers John - all comments IMHO
