Hi all just saying hello, not yet a minor owner but soon hopefully . Looking for a reasonable car to improve gradually really , I do have some workshop facilities but don't want a total basket case . Looking forward to ownership and maybe a show or two in the future
regards Andy

Welcome Andy! I'm a newbie too and still on my search for my very first Morris & first car!
Good luck

Indeed, welcome both. Not sure where you are located, but plenty coming up that you can attend with or without a Minor. Traveller celebration at Gaydon, NEC Classic Car Show, and local branch events. Full details in "Minor Matters".

Welcome, you will find the members of great help and I am sure one or two us will have a spare part lying around.

Hello alltogether, I am also a newbie in here and I just started this hobby. I live in Germany but haven't got a car yet - but for sure, this will change

Cars for sale are listed in the classified section of Minor Matters. The current edition is only a week old, so should still be some available. Also see the for sale section of this forum. If you know what sort you want, then try posting in the wanted section of either MM or forum. Good hunting all.

Quick update now a minor owner bought this on ebay though it was in the classified on here a while back. Its been parked up for seven years but is reasonably sound considering . Engine was seized from standing but I have now freed it off after soaking for a week. To be honest don't know if i'm going to preserve it and mot/use , or to really tidy it up and use , will probably know more about that when I drive it on the road
