Morris Minor Owners Club

Had an hour to kill yesterday before catching a flight from Napier to Auckland. A colleague of mine said "you should go and see Ian, he's got a few Morries in his shed" - lets just say it's bit more than a few.....

Nice to know our cars are appreciated worldwide.

Brilliant! Well done Ian.
I wish I had a shed like that..............

Has he still got the pile of Morrie vans against the end of the museum and does he ever sell anything??

Yeah, there is a pile of vans outside gently decomposing themselves - and as far as I know, he doesn't sell anything. He told me that he has 40 grandkids and has a 4-door minor for each of them when he passes on!

Impressive collection, but how many will see the road again

Wow, Im going to need a shed like that soon

I've got a few sheds that need a garage,but,one day they wont !

Best give them one now, he can then enjoy seeing them being used

I'll remind him next time I'm over in NZ!

I visited there about 3 years ago and was told the same story. I wanted some NZ AA badges to add to my collection but he wont sell them either.Its an amazing Museum - if only we could set up something like that here.
We were on our way south heading for the Morrie Convention in Christchurch after visiting the Bay of Islands etc and spotted a few interesting Morries on route.
