Belgians Got it WRONG!!

Post by markattard »

Hi All,

have you ever visited Autoworld Museum in Brussels? During my visit last week I was curious to see which minor models were to be included in such a museum. But to my surprise there were none!

More exactly, the only minor presence, in the cafeteria corner, in the dark and behind the tables there lied this morris parody:

May I ask what is the "Auto world" without a morris minor?!! Apparently someone thought that a classic car collection is complete without our Minor, not just that but included a bottom to bottom mog that could only go backwards... :cry:


Some people should stick to mussels and chocolate .... :wink:

Impressive, it appears to be flying into the bargain. Probably designed by the muppet below.

That must be a great seating arrangement! But if everyone faces in, we start to get problems with the steering column and pedals... Ever tried driving with your hands behind your back? :o

Even with no engine bay, it still has a drip tray full of kitty litter ...

Great rear visibility though! You can see out of the back without a mirror!

Actually I posted this topic because I was mad about the lack of acknowledgement towards the morris minor, but now I see that at least the mutant model is very entertaining!!

They should stick to making chocolate. :lol:

Although, I do like the skimmed smooth bootlid.
What would Macgyver do..?
