The relative took several Minors over several years out to Malaysia.
Do any of them still exist?
Best wishes,
Mike.

Thank you
My Minor 2 door saloon WDF 714 was sold by F W Cutts & Co and registered on the 01/01/1958.
She was collected from Cowley and driven back to chipping Campden on trade plates.
When I did my apprenticeship I used to work on and service WDF 714 before I bought her for £152 with 42K on the clock.
She was immaculate and completely standard back then.
Phil

A fantastic link to your Minor and it's history. My apprenticeship was 1968-1973 when was yours if you bought a 1958 car?

Not exactly a picture, new or old style, but my car still has the supplying dealer sticker in place above the left side glovebox aperture.
