Morris Minor Owners Club

Now, me and the missus are having an argument. And I am hoping you lot will be able to prove me right.

What Gender is a minor?

I'm convinced that minors are female. she's convinced they aren't

Ideas please?

It depends on their temperament. One's that are good and behave will be.......
Erm.
Ah.
I better stop there I think

Mines female "bob"

They must be female when I was a young lad we used to call them a womans car that was in the 60's by the way
Hope that helps with your argument

Not Kate?

Wifey calls her Hermione, being convinced it's female. I don't think it is, it's too reliable and not nearly expensive enough...

When I get mine I'll let you know what it turns out like, but I suspect it will be like a best mate, ready for a laugh. Probably male then...

Pete, you're a coward

Hi all,

My Minor is definetly male when it runs smoothly and gives no problems. Definetly becomes female when it costs lots of money and becomes akward for no apparent reason.

My thoughts for what they are worth. Jeff

Both of mine are Males, they never complain about going to the pub

when I was a young lad we used to call them a womans car

And I bet you wore brightly coloured flares and had a girly haircut (or even a perm) at that time as well
Down here we just looked Cool or was that Stupid I can never remember which.

That doesn't help - neither does my Wife.

The two are often hard to differentiate...

No, a diplomat.

Minors are female unless they are the 'butch' version (big engines etc..) in which case they are male.
Women can get confused about that but then again they think there are lots of different colours, not just ~9.

Long hair.. long gone never had a perm Kevin but funnily enough I found a pair of my old flared trousers last year, wouldn't even pull over the top of my legs now...... was I that slim once

Mal

Really depends on the car, but I have two girls.

Mine is just a Minor!

... but Morris is a boys name

Mines definately female, think shes got the menopause

Hello all,

I have an engineering background and I was told early on that all machines are feminine, definitely.

That's where you went wrong Alec, a Morris is not a machine it's a living breathing creature. As indicated by the way they sulk if you don't visit them regularly.

I hope the wife doesnt read your postings Roger.

A minor is a minor is a minor, until you shout at it when something drops off (the car i mean)(both shouting at and when bits of it drop off it) then its definatly female, nothing else can still look good and drive when not in Possession of all its faculties!!! I know Im in trouble, See how fast I can run away!!!

My new one is a bloke. The wider wheels give it a wider-looking stance, unlike the 'hipped' look with standard wheels.

And black Minilites are not feminine footwear...
