Morris Minor Owners Club

Just saw a new ad (5 mins ago)for Muller Light on C4 ,with a White Convertable Minor being the Star!

Legend!

Was the reg an 07 plate? and does it belong to anyone on here?

I didnt catch the reg,sorry

Ah yes, and the mud!

Found this one, which has a red car an mud...is there another one?

Just seen the advert!

I don't think that 07 plate was legal!

Nice car & very pleasant advert.

I 'think' the registration begins with CW (but only had a glance at it) - may be a clue to the supplier of the vehicle....... Of course that plate isn't legal.

I don't think that 07 plate was legal!

And why not as there is still the odd unused bodyshell knocking around

To get an 07 reg - it would need to pass all the current safety and emissions etc regs! Not a chance. New shell build would need to go through the 'kit car' inspection process (which I don't think Minor would pass anyway) - and would get a Q plate.

Just seen this advert this evening.

A whitish/light pinkish convertible with four ladies in it, parking in a muddy field and then using diet books placed in the mud to get to out to another part of the field. Like most adverts on TV, I didn't get what the product was that was being peddled. I noticed the car however and the registration number shown on the car is not in a format used in this country. It was smaller than the 1000 bootlid pressing for the English registration format. Like many other adverts on the telly porporting to be of England it will be made in another country where the sun shines. Could be New Zealand, Australia, South Africa or where ever the Minor was sold.

Out of interest has anyone here ever bought something as a result of seeing it advertised on the 'box'? I am struggling to think of any one thing that I have been pursuaded to buy by looking at the TV. I haven't swapped my bank or building society - I don't usually buy 'ladies' products anyway - I haven't considered rushing out to buy sofas, kitchens, furniture, low fat yogurt - shop at certain supermarkets, switch to different newspapers and I certainly haven't purchased a car. Is it me? Am I a hopeless case?

I did once buy Cornflakes............

Not porridge!
Must have been some powerful advertising

I've seen this ad a couple of times now. The number plate is CW07 ***. Can't remember that last three letters but this is definately an '07 british plate just plonked on the car to hide its real identity I think. Perhaps it is just a plate that isn't registered to a car on the road so they used it?

Saw the ad last night...very nice .

For those of us who've not seen it, it's here:

IIRC it is " CW 07 KZV "
Which is not registered to a Morris (or indeed to any other modern mainstream car from Alpha to Volkswagen)

The CW part is IIRC related to Bangor? In which case most of my cars should have CW plates
