Spotted yesterday in a 50's museum up near Denbigh, North Wales.Its up for sale with no mot for £1100 has a bit of rust on the sills, wheel arches/wings seem fine (new?) Underneath has been undersealed but paintwork on the bootlid is knackered from where they had a luggage rack attatched. Carpets and everyting seems dry. Tax ran out 04 last year so has been standing here since.

Seem to remember that this was advertised on Ebay recently. Evidently didn't sell.

Well yesterday actually! :oops:
Almond green 2 door in New Milton high street, think it was a C reg

Today, a Trafalgar blue 2 door saloon parked in a farmyard on the road down to Kimmeridge near Wareham, Dorset. It was approx 1962 with a four number RU numberplate, so a nice local car :D Pretty sure it was in use as never seen it there before and looked quite tidy although un-restored :D

Bit vague (so I apologise!) but my friends from home keep insisting they see the same moggy out in Lincoln.

I *think* its Trafalgar Blue and was parked on High St near Ritzys on New Years Eve. Who is this?

Seen a almond green traveller this morning, driving through Dunmurry crossroads. Didn't get reg, but guessing 67/68.

Exchanged waves with some fairly youngish bloke in a dark blue Moggie saloon in Stafford today as I drove the other way in a green Moggie saloon. Dunno if it was anyone who frequents these forums.

The TV channel "Yesterday" is re-running the Lovejoy series. Lovejoy is driving around in a Morris Minor 1000 convertible Reg No. VOY943G. In today's episode the unfortunate Moggie had her driver's door knocked off by a motorbike! Does anyone in the club own this car now?
Cheers,
Mike

A Smoke Grey 2-door saloon, circa '62, driving through Tolworth towards Surbiton at about 10.15 this morning. Was unfortunately in the modern Fiat 500 so couldn't wave!
