Morris Minor Owners Club

I'm in Leeds with occasional visits to Teesside and Lincolnshire.

I know most of you probably know this, but I still live in hope of meeting somebody other than Cat (who I converted to Minors* so I wasn't alone)

*cars, not children

Any member attending the show could have visited the club stand where free tea / coffee / orange juice was provided, along with biscuits and a good natter. We were told that we were the friendliest stand in the show. There were biscuits?! My diet would've flown out the window had I known (probably ...

Hello all! I've been meaning to post for ages, but I believe I am the owner of a disabled minor? She is trafalgar blue, 1969 (YPE 449G) with the folding/sliding seats and plain door cards. The gear stick seems to be slightly higher than normal also. I bought her from CW in 2009 and I was genuinely u...

I'd like to complain that you did not wear a patterned jumper.

First of all, apologies I never seem to post on here, however I came on to share how impressed I was with the MMOC stand this year at NEC (my stand highlight being the rather fetching photo of Paul Temple in dishy 80s glasses!) I'm sorry to hear Katie that you felt the Young Members meet was disorga...

I think I probably owe Chris at Tom Roys a drink for all the advice hes given me over the phone this year!

Katie, you're ruthless. I was thinking ruthless... but yes heartless. men dont stick aroujnd u then :P How rude! Who is the sticking around comment to? Katie, you KNOW we're spot on ;) My boyfriend won't be coming, he would hate to sit in a field with Moggies for 3 days, but its a club thing anyway...

Katie, you're ruthless.

We're LS4 2LP - Thats me and Cat and Ben is a few streets away if hes coming (not even asked) - we can meet people further down the country?

We've just bought this lovely little gem for the housemate from somebody who has only had it 4 weeks but has to sell due to circumstances.

Does anyone know anything about it?

Ta! x

Oh dear - Charles Ware - and lots of problems. Where have I heard that before! ? Oh really :( I understand that you aren't allowed to say negative things, but I think my general consensus would be "some warranties aren't what they should be" I'm just lucky I've just fallen on my feet and ...

I'm just 21, with no claims, and I've been driving less than a year, and I pay 700 fully comp/uk and eu breakdown cover/key cover/windscreen cover with Aviva (they do it through Adrian Flux)

Try them. x

I'm Steph, 21 and living in Leeds as a student!

I've got a Trafalgar Blue 1969 2 door called Peggy that I bought from Charles Wares MM Centre in Bristol in July.

Absolutely love her, even though she is driving me up the wall at the moment with all her problems!

Thanks guys,I'm going to attempt to get somebody to help me do all this over the coming week...hopefully I'll be back on the road before you know it!

Haven't had the head gasket adjusted again yet, as I only got 20 miles before it overheated again!

Thanks for all the brilliant advice everyone! I'll keep everyone posted as to whether I ever get further than Asda without overheating again. Ha!

Hello Stephh What condition is the cooling system in. Have you ever flushed out the radiator as over time carp accumulates. Is the fanbelt tight. When you ever have the heater on does it get hot. If yes to all of the questions consider flushing the block What engine do you have James Hi James, The ...

Oh thankyou! Having some teething problems with her, and I'm trying to exhaust all my options in getting her tip top again! x

Hi, sorry for my lack of technical knowledge before I start writing this, but I'm at my wits end as to what to do! 3 weeks ago I was driving home from Sheff to Leeds, and the car started to lose power (as though you are driving in too high a gear) and then there was a sweet smell/steam coming from u...

Hiya,

Trying to find out a bit about this car! Bought from the Bristol Area a few months ago.
