Morris Minor Owners Club

95700 ish,that will be 96000 by the end of tomorrow
makes me realise how nice my first minor was,53,000 when we first got it in 2001,and it was genuine on the original engine

Anyone on here own or seen my very first Minor,reg BBH 810F?
Was still in the Hereford/Worcestershire area last i heard about it but not seen or heard about it for a couple of years now.
I know its still taxed,wondering if anyone has seen it at a rally or something?

ive been with FJ since i started driving aged 18 in 2007,they do a young classic drivers scheme for any car over 15 years old that you are a member of the club,again,around the £400 mark,but that has dropped a lot for me since then!
i have unlimited mileage on mine,it was only another £30

when the reflective yellow and white plates were introduced as BMC says it was the modern thing to have fitted to your new car,my 1969 Minor still has its original yellow and white plates with alluminium border and raised seperate digits,and they are staying on there!i myself love original accessori...

if the car was needed to be motd in a hurry that could all be done in an afternoon,the gaiter can be araldited back together so long as its just split and not falling off,splitpins-fit a pair,and adjust the brakes.not bad really tho

right,ive now done around 200 miles with the kit fitted,and from my calculations my fuel economy is now around the 42-43mpg mark,based on the method of brimming the tank untill the nozzle clicks,doing 100 miles,then refilling.This is without a doubt the best mpg ive had on a minor,my previous ones o...

if you do a lot of miles then for the space it would take up its worth having a spare,you might find you are better off with an original 60s pump thats got good contacts,stuff was better made then,all my minors have had the original pumps fitted,after being laid up for 4 years i had to give my first...

will definitely aim to go to the Brum rally,not that far away
could pop along to a club night if its not too far

Does anyone actually camp at Minor rallies?or does everyone go into a b and b :lol: Im hoping to do a lot of Minor rallies this year,ive only been to one before a few yrs ago and that was just for the day. Will definitely want to do the national,but ill be wanting to tent it! Done around 20 or so Re...

im 21,and now on my third Minor

Here is the details from the website: This Conversion Kit will convert all 25D4 and 23D4 points distributors to an electronic model Do away with your troublesome points systems utilise your existing non ballast points type ignition coil and why bother with any refurb kits, gain much more from your e...

Well she actually lives in Ash,but thats very nearby,would be nice to meet another Mog owner,ill take you up on that

i think they might have been ***** you know :wink: Ive now done a few miles with the Kit,starting from cold was quicker,it only took a couple of turns over before,this time it started on what seemed like a quarter turn of the key! Acceleration is improved,time will tell on wether it uses less fuel. ...

its made out of a better plastic and fits better on the rotor arm,unlike the utter rubbish that was sold to me from a Minor specialist,was rusty out the packet and shorted out.i know im not allowed to say who but there was a field full of cows next door,looking at a Minor bonnet badge :lol: :wink: i...

i drive to my girlfriends place in Aldershot(140 miles each way) every week or 2 weeks,as well as general running around,so i will probably average 10-12000 miles a year in the Mog,i dont see the problem,if something breaks i fix it and carry on!

later Reliant 3 wheelers can achieve a lot more than that,i think the highest in an economy run was 103mpg from a standard 700c Regal saloon.
Anyway ive fitted the lovely kit to the dizzy and shall try it tomorrow

The reliants i mention are proper ones,Robins,Regals,Rialtos,Kittens and Foxes
I upped my average mpg on my last one from 60mpg on a run to 65mpg.

in my personal view based on Reliants,four and three wheeled,they are fantastic and the claims are justified.
I will be fitting it tonight then slipping the dizzy in tomorrow morning.i will report back with what happens.

thats with an uprated rotor arm,the standard kit is £21.

can i just say a few things based on my own experience of using these kits,albeit on Reliants but they still have an SU carb and 45d dizzy. These are not in the same league as lumenition,in my opinion and from what ive read on here,they are very poorly made,expensive for what they are and unreliable...
