well you will buy these 'modern' cars with flashing indicators and 2 speed wipers etc!

and the 1000 was probably the first car to be restored and kept in any great numbers.

If you refer to the MMOC handbook you will find details of all 8 registers - including a S11 register. The guy advertised for details and sent forms out - which were returned ... & thats it.

There were 269,838 series 2 cars (saloons & travellers) produced apparently, some 30,000 less than the later 1000.

2 speed wipers? oh you mean on or off!! Must admit I do like the MMs and early series 2s.

thanks Louise, those figures are quite staggering.

The reason I asked about the series 2 register was to see if anybody has an idea of how many are still on the road. Compared to the the '1000' I would think very few.
