Morris Minor Owners Club

spotted a lovely brown Traveller in Grantham today, roughly around 1300 or so. very good condition even if it was just a glimpse of its bum as it went around a corner

Spotted a tired looking 2 door Moggie thou, reg number ASL 918 in olive green today (19-01-2012) in the forecourt of D.T. Mathewson in Thornton le dale near pickering n.yorks.
They repair and deal in specialist (expensive) vintage motors predominantly, a sign in this car read "not for sale till we fix it" or words to that effect.
It wasnt too shabby, but the bumper chrome was peeling like old paint, original brown leather seats though and the paint wasnt bad.

Just seen a two door trafalgar blue moggy on dovecot avenue huyton liverpool registration number sho 964g

I was following this saloon last week on Gravel Hill in Poole, Dorset and managed to get this snap whilst following in my Minor pick up, although if you look at the oncoming vehicle, i didn't choose a very good moment to take it!! [frame][/frame]
And then last night i parked next to this 2 door saloon in Tesco car park in Ferndown, Dorset [frame][/frame]

kfo 672 belongs to some local boys carlo, i went to school with one of them. i think it gets shared amongst siblings, as he's now at university, so his older brother is keeping it alive (just). don't know if you noticed the nail in place of the pin on the boot hinge lol

unfortunately i probably know half of them.

back on topic, was anyway broken down on the way to southampton from ringwood, saturday early afternoon in a traffy blue saloon? i was on the way back to uni in the ol dads 405 estate. looked like assistance had already arrived in the form of an audi. if it hadn't have been there we may have stopped to offer assistance.

Spotted near Sainsburys at Colton Leeds, a four door Almond Green SII. I only managed to glance at the reg as it was at the opposite side of the roundabout to me. I think it ended 771

Left hand drive convertible opposite a garage that services classic cars here in Rennes - first time I've seen it outside.
It is now back on the road following a change of cylinder head (obtained via MMOC)[frame][/frame]

today was an unusually good day for morris minors in the Southsea area. saw a late 4 door saloon in OEW near the Kings theatre in Albert road, quite tidy and a nice everyday car. had union jack badges screwed onto the wings for some reason?
then i saw a OEW g reg traveller. good wood, wheels painted black, which didn't really suit if i'm honest- also had some modern seats in it, and needed a wash!

In Beverley this lunchtime[frame][/frame]

I see a F reg dark blue pickup parked on a drive in Berkhamsted when I work there on Tuesdays.

There was a grey four door saloon on Countryfile on BBC1 reg 180 XUR.I noticed when the presenter was driving and talking the ignition light was on.

Spotted a OEW saloon in Coventry city centre around lunchtime.

Reg: JNX ***D

Good to see it being used despite the inclement weather.

Saw the grey pickup again in Ipswich today busy earning its living, load in back covered by a tarp. This is the 4th time I have seen it but the first time I have been able to see the number plate which is SHJ 172 G. Very nice condition and good to see it in everyday use as a work horse.

Spotted today on the Albertbridge Road in Belfast a trafalgar blue convertible with black hood, small tail lights on the back and reg was??? RFU. Not a minor Ive seen around locally before

A few weeks ago whilst out mooching I came across a smoke grey (I think) pick-up with a visor around the Bradford/Dewsbury/Batley area. Oh it was beautiful. Almost died when I saw it but I drove past too quickly with a bus behind me so didn't get chance to stop. Had a look on here and I think it may be 'super trimbo'???

I saw a white saloon just at last minute after I had just pulled out of the petrol station near Hemel Hempstead train station when I was out in my Minor van today.

saw an almond green van with oew pannels a couple of times while working on mine this weekend in aston clinton -- wasn;t you, morrisvan, was it?

No mine is blue.
