Morris Minor Owners Club

If anyone knows where these cars are, or have seem them, I'd be interested to hear about them out of curiosity. I believe all were first registered in Winchester.

796 is Limeflower - I know it belonged to a Lancashire Branch member and I believe it was last in the Blackpool area but was sold a couple or so years ago. The car was in Winchester up to about 2009 and I remember the original owner (now deceased)

800 was Bedouin but according to the DVLA website is/was now red. It was last on the road in the UK in 2011. I remember it from the day I join the MMOC in 1981 at a local rally. It was for sale at £900. I last saw it in Southampton in the mid 80's.

COR 426K was also a Limeflower Traveller- however, DVLA says that it was last on the road in 1994.

Thanks for posting this: I was curious to find out where it went. I thought it would still be on the road, it was certainly good when I last saw it at a National Rally at Harewood House. It's getting further and further away from the South!!

I can fill in some of the early-ish history if your interested.

Your are correct Chris, in fact, all three cars were registered in Winchester. In those days at the registration office at The Castle, Winchester, which is still the HQ for Hampshire County Council.

No doubt, COT 796K would be a good example for your late traveller chassis/body/engine/jkey numbers..I know it's a steering lock car and possibly black engine.
