I have seen far worse at car shows and the one I saw in Berkhamsted the other day was 10 times worse than that one. Even mine has a few scabs on it but it is being sorted out.

From a general twice yearly (Spring and late Summer) car meet at Audley End House, Saffron Walden, Essex. This is free to enter - needs registration with English Heritage - and car and occupants get free access to House and grounds, a significant saving on normal entry prices (adult £17.). Uttlesford attended for the first time with 6 minors only equalled by the Mark 1 Escorts. If you are within striking distance, why not come along - well worth it. I will post the Spring 2018 date as soon as I know it.

No less than three Minors early-ish yesterday morning heading west along the Probus by-pass. A saloon, a traveller and a convertible (I think, the sun was in my eyes a bit, but they must have seen me going the other way in my green splittie). They may have been on their way to an event (perhaps they can confirm, if any of them read this), but I was off to the beach for a swim! :D

saw a dark blue traveller on the A303 this morning (near Andover) charging along to a lovely exhaust note around 70mph.

further down the A303, I saw the same car in a layby with the bonnet up.................. I didn't stop as I was in work and late for a meeting. hope they sorted what ever it was........

Not a Minor but a rare sighting yesterday in Kidderminster: XUR***K a metallic blue Ford Zodiac Mk.4 (the one with the very long bonnet and very short boot!)

Axbridge classic tour and show. Was 4 Travellers including mine. 3 smoke grey ones and a green one.
The 2 smoke grey ones had been rebuilt by The Morris minor centre and someone else restored the green one. So it was nice driving mine i had rebuilt myself.

Disappointed that my Dashcam is playing up and not giving consistent recordings, but last weekend (Sat 30 Sep) we were in the Malvern area and spotted a black splitte out in the rain.
It was travelling the opposite direction so only a brief glimpse, but it was heading towards Malvern from Worcester, it was on a 6 digit registration, but all I had time to remember was it started with a K......
Looked a nice car, was it anyone from on here?
