Spotted today.
New topic , "spotted today " , when your out and about in your every day travels wherever you are in the country , if you spot a morris minor , place the details on here, i.e make model = colour = reg ending in ... =where you saw it = see if its a members car from the site ...
Its a good way of getting to chat and mix with other minor owners also it may surprise you how many are in your own area that you dident know plus a good way of locating other unloved and unfinished minors that may be sitting in someones yard = garden = drive ....
Hope some of you like this idea !! , looking forward to seeing the feedback on this for a topic ...cam.

Re: Spotted today.
Saw a green four door sensibly parked outside the Nettlebed sale today (Oxfordshire) - we ventured in to the car park and nearly got stuck in the mud !

Re: Spotted today.
Actually, the problems forum probably isn't the best place!
I'll move it to General Discussion...

Re: Spotted today.
Main 'problem' likely is that most Minors are still safely tucked away for the winter! The only one I have spotted recently (last week) was lying in the scrappy at Newmains - looking out the gates - obviously hopeful someone would 'save' it!!

Re: Spotted today.
My parents spotted a two-door saloon in Bolivar a few days ago, sitting on a trailer! I'll have pictures for you all in a few days. This makes the fourth or possibly fifth Minor in the Ozarks, including my own, that I know of.
In addition to the trailered one, I came across a Moggie in the Springfield area on Weather Underground: http://www.wunderground.com/wximage/vie ... lideanchor
I was quite interested to come across it. In sort of a state of disrepair, though. Nonetheless, I'm intent on going and finding it.

Re: Spotted today.
Well I'll be a monkey's uncle, that's your Minor?! I should have known! Well, I suppose now we know where you live. I did know about the Traveller, but I didn't know you'd got a saloon.

Re: Spotted today.
Enough of the local chit-chat, fin. Back to your drawing board - you're supposed to be designing the New Minor I'm selling to people over here!

Re: Spotted today.
HaHA! Slavedriver much, Ondergard? You'll get a design next week, when I have time. At the moment I'm occupied with midterm tests. (This is one of my few distractions, and thank heaven for it.)

Re: Spotted today.
Every time I drive up to North Wales along the coast road from here, I see two minors parked up. One between Aberaeron and Aberystwyth - a grey Traveller (with some sixties-style flower decals on the side) 310 BLX (you can guess why I remember that number plate if you watch Only Connect!); and one just outside Aberystwyth itself, a grey saloon, reg is LVS 729. Depending on whether its garage is open, I often see a white saloon on the road between Dolgellau and Tywyn - GFF 147.
Then, of course, Animal Jack's two minors - one a Trav and the other a van - I see regularly outside his house in Pembroke Ferry.
