Morris Minor Owners Club

Great, but what's the van in the first picture? The screen is split, but the grille is wrong, and so is the fuel filler. It looks almost like an Oxford MO, but it's still not right for that. Is it perhaps a computer generated pic?

That is absolutely brilliant! Thanks so much for posting it, deeor. Really cheered up my evening.

Fantastic, there seem to be quite a lot of songs about morris' on youtube!
Anyway, I think the van pictured is a Morris Cowley

Yes first one deffo not a Minor - even without the grille clues you can see the bottom of the doors bells out at the front.

Incidentally it's closely based on an Irish folk song called The Black Velvet Band. The Dubliners did an excellent version of it:

Thats definatley the Minors bigger brother the Oxford a rare car in its day and as you can imagine even rarer today.

Thinking Moggies in Irish folklore reminded me of an exhibition I once saw at St Edmunds Art Centre in Salisbury, of photos of old Moggies decaying into the Irish landscape. Very good very tasteful. There is some corner of a foreign field, etc etc
