Not a Morris, but spotted this morning on the M3 (London bound) - taken with my new side window mounted car cam.
No rear axle, 2 disconnected prop shafts and looking very "military" like - anyone got any clues?

There were several Morris Minors and other classic and vintage cars at the Hyde Heath village fete this afternoon.

Nice to see an Unrestored Almond Green 2 door LGF 38D on northbound A34 tonight near Marcham interchange. Then near Botley on opposite carriageway I glimpsed a trafalgar blue saloon driven by a beautiful redhead :D

Well when i say completely rotten. All i saw of the underneath was the front inner wings and floorpan/sill area from looking inside through the windows and their isn't much left. But i suppose it Could be saved with a lot of work and money !!!!

Saw a green Traveller today in Kidderminster - thought the reg plate was AAW223T, (which I know is too young), but this actually seems to be registered to a Marina (coincidence?).

Anyone out there own this? Looked very pretty.

Yes known to many on this site - actually AAW 633T (ex MOD Traveller hence the late registration number - vehicles received the registration for the year they were de-commiissioned.) :D
