    My morris on the 60's paper route- miniscule brake shoes and no syncro between 1st and rev. Holding it from sliding down the hill on ice, while I got the paper in the box. Going all the way down the hill around my subscibers house when the brakes failed. breaking 1st gear (no synchro). It is absolutely the prettiest car ever made, gas milage, yes. Perfectly created to those years in England on the back roads, faster than a horse!

      They weren't good cars, my dad had one and it was terrible,
      no space inside and a tiny boot. I longed for a Mk1 Cortina.

    I love these videos about your morris minor, I inherited my late dads morris minor last year and passed my driving test a few days ago, so it's going to be my first car, need to have some things fixed on it (indicators not working, dodgy gearbox). But really looking forward to driving it, especially after seeing yours and other peoples videos about them.

    That looks like it was a lot of fun...would love to do that...we here in South Africa also do that with the old cars. Every two years all the Borgward's go to Grariep dam, it's more or less central to all the different locations in South Africa.

    Hi Steph wow what a fun trip to go on you'd have to keep your wits about you when driving on the right.I live in Australia and I saw an old low light moggie I was wondering if you knew what year they ran from you don't see many of them around anymore.💖

    Audio, audio, audio! You are yeling at me and your guests are quiet. Get yourself an advisor about video production. It isn't only you there is alot channels with great content- yours is brilliant- but quality of production is rubbish. Keep up your work but make it a bit polished for us. Thank you.

      @@idriveaclassic fair enough but before you start anything what is going to make some income (a work, job) there is always some preparation beforehand so why you didn't do the same with the channel? I don't care about difficulties you were facing at the beginning. You're not the only one to whom I writing about this issue. I do like your approach and the car. I cannot subscribe to something what is in low quality of audio or video production for here's few channels which get it right from the start. I sorry for ranting but you want money and audience therefore you should do the homework before started to post videos. Latest posts are ok but...
