The "gubbins" attaches to an "A" frame.

A lovely car Matt. You must be very thrilled with Derek!

More than thrilled :D

The towing hitch on the front was used by one of the previous owners to tow the car behind their motorhome as Dan says (it's a proper job and only adds to the structure of the car).

They used to drive to the campsite, setup camp and go around the local village/town in sunny spain in the Minor - where the car lived for 20 years - no wonder there's no rust! :D :D :D

When we went to look at the car I didn't get good look at the underneath (I left that to my friend :lol:). Well I was taking a look underneath the car tonight and it turns out that the car has Spax suspension fitted front and rear :D

Sudden realisation when reading a thread on here, I told the insurance about the 'non-standard' wheels and it didn't make a difference to my insurance, I didn't tell them about the spax suspension :o (didn't realise it was there when I phoned them).

Apparently only things that improve the performance of the car will effect the price. Do you think the spax suspension will up the price? :(

If anyone is interested the spax didn't make a blind bit of difference, phew! :D
