I can get the car sideways around any corner
because it's an old car things will break, in my case for the first few months a lot will break.
:D :lol:

Of course, but I get my own NCB so it doesnt really matter.

im 17 passed my test a month or so ago got a minor insurance is £285 fully comp named drivers me, mum and dad.
car is great i love it even everyone at school does (?!?),
car may play up from time to time but notthing bad, mine occassionally stalls as you drive along but gettin that fixed atm ( fuel pump and carb needed a clean, easy).
one thing i've found about the morris is that say ur drivng at 40 mph if you dont look at the speedo u'll think ur doing about 80mph (anyone else get this), so theres no need to speed because u have the sensation of going quite fast when really ur not.
58HP at the wheels and 75 HP at the flywheel
