Hello,

I became a moggie owner this week. Here is my 1969 2-door almond green saloon. Bought new in Bristol in 1969 and owned by the same lady until she died last year. Owned briefly by a guy who restored it and sold it on - to me. He sold it to pay for work to his other classic car (which I think it a Bentley). Surprised he wanted to sell it but good news for me! Here it is.

Anyone know how I can upload the pic to my profile and add my location?

Thanks,
Matthew[frame]Image[/frame]

Hi Matt,

Welcome to the messageboard - nice looking Minor you have there :D

To update your profile, click on the 'user control panel' icon (at the top left when logged on).
This will take you to the 'edit profile' screen. Enter your location in the 'location' text box then click 'submit'.
Next click on the 'edit signature' link on the left. This will take you to a page where you can upload a signature pic (same process as when you added the photo of your car to your post). Click 'submit' and the sig picture should upload :D

Thanks, Louise, that is really helpful.

Thanks for the compliment. I took it to a local garage whose owner cut his teeth on Minors and he thought I had picked a good one - I hope so !!

Hi Adrian,

Thanks; sadly I am too old to join the young members' group but I was planning to look into the local group so thanks for that.

Hi Matt. I am sure our paths will cross sometime in the next few weeks. Shame you missed our branch rally last Sunday. Or did you???

Thanks all. I missed last Sunday as St Fagans as I was in Wiltshire viewing the Minor and agreeing to buy it!

I would like to come to a South Wales group meeting but can't make the next one - hopefully I will make the one after that. If someone could let me know when that is, I'll put it in my diary.

Many thanks.
