Is anyone building new morris minors now?

This is probably a daft question, but I wondered if anyone ever made a serious effort of manufacturing new morris minors?

I know I'm sellling mine soon but they are soooo cute!! I mean no other car is really as nice looking. Plus the fact that they seem to have so much more character than todays modern ones.

Would I marry mine? Yes probably! :lol:

Sorry Katie but the nearest some years ago was the Opus car by Chris Street in Somerset but that was a modified car and only the prototype was made.

the ambassador has an izuzu engine.

they did make the minor in india with bmc license, under the name "baby hindustan", but as far as i'm aware they have long been out of production
