Iknow what you mean. You've got the Terrible Twins but we've got Sarko! I miss beer, fish and chips and driving on the left.

For a picture look under the heading "Pictures of you and your car....rather than just the car". You get to see the owner as well! SGTBILKO

Having followed this forum for some weeks now and thought it only polite to introduce myself. I am 58 of british nationality and have been living in France since 1988 but am planning a comeback to the UK in the near future. My Minor is a Trafalger Blue 4 door model from 1970. By the way Trafalger is...

Great work and an inspiration to all![frame][/frame]

Good advice about servicing regularly. Just a few observations about other road users reaction to such a car, I have found that on the whole my 1098 Minor has had positive reaction especially in England.

Before someone says it. I forgot to say that the wheels on my car are a non-standard colour

Don't do it then. You won't see enough in it to ensure safety, it might even lull you into a false sense of security. I made this mistake with a much more modern car that had factory fitted mirrors on the doors. A 3 ton lorry would easily fit into the blind spot that thing had! Didn't cause an acci...

Hi. Would mine do? Its bog standard, the only non-standard items are locking petrol cap and door mirrors! Regards, William.[frame][/frame]

Thanks to everyone who sents suggestions, you have been very helpful. I can't see much with the left hand door mirror which is important on continental roads. I am still undecided, I hate the idea of driiling holes in the wings![frame][/frame]

Hello. Does anyone know if there is an ideal position for wing mirrors on a Morris Minor. On the wings obviously, but how far back from the headlamp bezel for example. What is the best make of wing mirror available today? I have been looking at the Tex site. I find door mirrors inadequate the ones I...
