Re: Morris in for service
Clutch plate possibly ‘ stuck on ‘. Had a similar problem on a Westfield . Lucky to have a long downward sloping drive so started the car in gear( jumpy start ) at the top of the drive with the clutch depressed and ‘ drove down the drive —- came off with a large ‘ bang ‘. Hope all turns out OK.
