Morris Minor. - Chris Garner - 15-12-2024
Recently a posting was made of a Morris Minor thought to be a Seven (!)
The car is well known to the Minor fraternity and is used daily during Spring and Summer.
The enclosed photo was recently featured in the Daily Telegraph newspaper, showing it taking a wash.

If anyone is genuinely interested the Pre-war Minor network run "POTY" - Photo Of The Year competition. Some lovely images on there.

A great group of chaps, sort of lead by the indomitable Chris Lambert. I was an active member when I had my M type MG (for those that don't know, A supe'd up rebodied OHC Minor) and have even joined in one of their excellent summer rallies in my Box Saloon...

Either the driver is big or their isn't much head room in the car. I spent my first four years in one and one of my tricks was to post my teddy out under the hood and scream whereupon mother would stop and retrieve it.
