Morris Minor Owners Club

Famous at last! The last time I looked, which was perhaps 2 or 3 years ago Street view was available but you can opt out as a property owner so as not to have your frontage shown. :lol: :lol: Check out https://www.iamexpat.de/lifestyle/lifestyle-news/video-why-theres-almost-no-google-street-view-ge...

Famous at last!

The last time I looked, which was perhaps 2 or 3 years ago Street view was available but you can opt out as a property owner so as not to have your frontage shown.

I am only guessing but I think it probably was. It was discovered in Pirbright, Surrey, England and restored, albeit not too original e,g with 12 V neg Earth system, elektric fuel pump.
It is smaller than a Morris TRaveller , so the Wooden parts are different.
Very rare though.

I do not have a 803 Morris ( my Minor ist a '69 Traveller) but I do have an equivalent Austin 8 withits 800cc side valve engine. Being in a remote hilly area of Germany it does struggle a bit with some inclines. Indeed my good lady had to get out once as it would not achieve the climb even in first ...

You do not have E10 already in UK?

that is very difficult to understand.

Notwithstanding that not all countries in the world have reliable statistics, Australia is in comparison hardly worth mentioning. The hot spots in the world are USA, indonesia, Brazil, india and UK. The latter being the most prolific in Europe. source https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#main_...

The fitting shown by Morrisjohn was recommended to me by a friend so I got one. Made in South Africa apparantly. Always the problem before was fixing on to the nipple where the grease would go sideways under pressure from the gun. You needed three hands!
Very good tool I think.

Not been on here for a few days because I got an eye infection and could not see properly. The area in the picture is in Vogelsberg in Germany where I live ,of course. The "Leitpfosten" mark the edge of the road with reflectors as pointed out but they are not as good as cats eyes in the fo...

Bit of a milky picture but a nice view

Have you seen the Wheeler Dealers video where Edd China has renewed the lining? It is available on you tube .

If you see the Ed China video in UT on how he renovated a Traveller, it shows the roof gutter being sone - a specialist operation.

Found it

what you need is at about minute 7.00

any installation details pictures ??

The cork seals , I think it was recommended here on the forum, should be soaked in oil overnight before installing. Seemed to have worked in my 1098 engine effectively, no apparant leaks.

What a tragic example and a lesson to us all, despite the high statistical recovery rate, to take this virus very seriously. My doctor relation has told me that in Holland , they do not put anybody over 80 in intensive care any more because even if they survive ( only less than half do) they are pra...

I liked your videos a lot and great to see the Minor in action. Every year in my part of the world, there is a lokal ralleye - the last two years not but I had a look in UT and found this from 1983.

Look how close the spectators are lining the course!

I think it's worth pointing out that it's not necessarily that the EU are exporting vaccines through, is it?! It happens that the companies manufacturing the vaccines are based in the EU or in the UK. I don't think it's the great generosity of the EU, or indeed the terrible wickedness of the UK that...

There are a lot of sceptics about but also many people getting turned away from the vaccination centres because the supplies are not there. But it gets more interesting so something strange is going on - I have just heard that AZ in the news again are sitting on 29 mio doses in Italy and that it has...

I was interested to see if it was true that the countries in mainland europe were in a third wave, so I had a look at the statistik. Indeed many are. But also some are not. Portugal , for example had a huge wave in second half of January and now virtually nothing. I wonder where they got a vaccine f...

The EU are under a certain amount of pressure from within because of the share policy. They have exported 49 mio doses of vaccine abroad for which 10mio went to GB . This was due to the very high death rate ( the highest in europe) and infection rate around dec early jan. GB on the other hand have e...

Just like the man who was creating a rumpus because asians in Rotherham were raping his 13 year old daughter and the Police arrested him.
