As promised here are the latest pictures of work done on the green traveller in Cyprus as posted on page 58. The refurbishment of the underside and running gear has been very well done. The engine has been painted orange! Undercoat?

I saw a mint green traveller going through the Mersey Tunnel in the Liverpool bound lane, it looked very tidy- thought I saw VKL as the first letters, but could be wrong! 8)

I saw two Morris Minors in Berkhamsted at noon today one was a van and the other was a green saloon which looked as if it should have been scrapped years ago.

I spotted a smoke grey 2 door (late 50's / early 60's) in the car park at Leytonstone Tesco yesterday. It was very rusty all over and had large holes through all of the door bottom edges and rear quarter panels but fair play to the owner for keeping it roadworthy before concentrating on the cosmetics (assuming it had an MOT!) :D

Was overtaken this afternoon on the M4 by a very nice cream 1000 with a big black moustache painted across the front of the bonnet lid! 7263PU was being briskly driven by a pair of likely lads travelling between 64 and 73 mph (GPS) dropping to about 60 on the hills. I followed them eastward for about 20 miles till they turned off at Junction 14 for the A338 at 1350 hrs. They may like to know that the was no smoke to be seen or oil spots on my windscreen so their motor seems in good shape. And all rear indicators and stop lights worked too!
Regards, MikeN.
Morris Minor, the car of the future. One day they will all look like this!

Spotting Minors is getting infectious – the following Traveller was spotted at Tiverton House in Devon on December 29th, by a colleague from work. As they know I have a Traveller, my work colleagues send me pictures of any they have spotted.[frame]Image[/frame]
This appears to be a very nice example with, if I am not mistaken, one of those Italian Leather steering wheel "gloves".[frame]Image[/frame]

Well yesterday, actually, at about 13:00. Although not a Moggy, it was still a very nice sight - a white MG in the bright Farnborough sunshine.[frame]Image[/frame]
