Morris Minor Owners Club

I second all of that .

I've heard that if you have relatives round for Christmas the police will come and make them go away. Is this a free service or do you have to book !!

I've noticed that under my contact details it shows me as not being a member which I have been a fully paid up one for several years. Why is this ?

Second time for me today.

I cannot be certain what the various county forces fitted their cars with but The Metropolitan police started using Morris minors in 1968 with F suffix registrations. I have the car that I drove brand new out of Surbiton police station in April 1968. The cars were used as ' unit beat cars' and were ...

Could well be looks like its been driven by her husband !!

Yes AMP is defiantly a Met police number.

The very first Minors to be used by the Police were used by the Lancashire constabulary. They were Black and White hence the name Panda and the name stuck even though the later ones were Blue and White.

It's a genuine 1968 Ex Metropolitan police panda. It's the actual car that I drove brand new out of Surbiton police station in April 1968 as a serving police officer. I have a certificate of a factory record from The British Motor industry Heritage trust giving the build date as 23rd to 29th January...

This is my Panda

I had a lot of people riding in the back of my Panda, most of them not on their own free will.

You're very lucky I gave up trying months ago.

I could not agree more !!

My Panda has a really loud parp. I think the silencer must be made of recycled baked bean cans

I promise not to discuss my horticultural activities any more.

I have been busy in the greenhouse looking after a certain coloured bush. It is starting to sprout again and I have been giving it some tender loving care.

Has anybody else noticed that Practical Classics has voted the Morris Minor the number one ultimate classic.

Isn't it wonderful that we can criticise and castigate our police force without fear of retribution unlike some other countries, and thank goodness for bent coppers without whom we would not have half the television dramas.

This is just what I needed to cheer me up.
