That'll be Andrew Dyer I think, or at least his car!

I did quite well on the spotting front today. Heading eastbound on the M4 at about 08:00, by Jct 33, Cardiff West services on the opposite side of the road was a light blue traveller, a white saloon & 2 police cars, one had all the signs on it, the other one didn't. The one without had the prefix AX, a nice local car prefix.
Near here in Newport there's a haulage yard & there's been a white J reg Moggie parked in there for about 2 months or so now. I don't think it's being used as it seems to be on the same place. I know someone who works there so I will have to find out about it.

Hello everybody,

We have just come back from a holiday in North Wales, and were quite happy to see two Moggies, both obviously in running order.
Not far from our base at Harlech we regularly came past an old crossing keeper’s house at Llanfinagle-y-traethau where this almond green traveler was parked:

Image

As it was not there all the times, we suppose the owner is using it at least occasionally.

During a visit to the beautiful town of Conwy we found this grey traveler parked in High Street:

Image

Image
When we passed this place a little bit later the Moggy had gone, so unfortunately I was not able to start a chat with the owner.

Anyway, it has been an excellent holiday with quite good weather, and we even saw two Morris Minors in their “natural habitat”.

Cheers

Hubert and Angelika

A friend, at work, had been telling me about this particular car and I asked him to take a photo on his way home (which he did last night). Spotted in the Whitton area of West London, an Indian/Pakistani "Taxi"[frame]Image[/frame]
Although it was "first registered" in May 1968, the body shell shows a Trafficator Blanking Plate fitted on the door piller.

Crossing a bridge over a canal in central Amsterdam:

An old English white Traveller, towing a trailer.

It zoomed off before I could get my camera ready.

Green "C" reg 4-dr spotted this morning, about 08:30, racing along the Frimley Rd heading towards Camberley.
Must have been in a hurry to get to the Classic and Special car Show there.
I did wave, but was ignored (I was in my diesel Peugeot) - must have had a 1275 engine under the bonnet![frame]Image[/frame][frame]Image[/frame]

Would you be happy of someone taking a picture of your car and posting it on the internet for the world to see, eye up and may be steel??

DVLA has the colour registered as pink, but as far as its original colour goes is anyone's guess.

Alan - eh?! 80-odd pages of people posting pictures of other people's Minors and you complain about the ones I posted!!! Anyway, it IS actually chained to the ground.
