That was the sound of being a kid in the 70s - the exhaust warble when you throttle of a minor. Excellent .

I remember standing in front of my parents house in Brisbane Australia late at night around 1980' talking to a mate and mid sentence stopping and saying " Morry Minor" then the car appeared from behind a hill. My mate just shook my hand. Unmistakable.

A nice display of some bonnet down Woolarding at the start by Chris, there. Well done!

£4500 back in 1980 for a fully restored Minor is equivalent to around £22000 today according to inflation calculator

@mipmipmipmipmip roughly half I would say looking at rough prices, it does very much depend however.

Simple motoring. I use mine everyday. Fifty years old this year.... can’t say that about a ‘modern’. I love my Morris Minor!

[@HowardLeVert]

They seem to have (finally) disappeared around my way now; even ten years ago they were relatively commonplace.

My mum drove a traveller and my dad had the van.

[@spankysmp]

The only Elizabethan timber framed cars - wonderful.

[@QASIMARA]

Beautiful autos.

[@gaygambler]

Pick up a scruffy traveller * 😂😂
