Bellissimmo Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 ... making good progress away from a roundabout 😬 . I was driving the other way in a "new" Morris Minor. I would have but could't find the damn window winders in time ! Steve Bonnie Babies Charity Appeal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellissimmo Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 Gotta stay in line with the recession and all that Ian 😬 Bought for my daughter. She's been looking around for a while and I spotted this one on ebay and, contrary to all advice, I bid on it unseen. Looks like I've got a result - seems mostly original, nice condtion and lots of history including a period MM workshop manual. Journey home was c. 120 miles, which I did at between 50-70 mph and it never skipped a beat. Well, apart from a momentary loss of power coming away from the Darford toll at rush hour, which got the old adrenaline pumping  Steve Bonnie Babies Charity Appeal Edited by - Bellissimmo on 8 May 2009 08:06:08 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stationary M25 Traveller Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Possibly oil level in the dashpot on the SU carb ? Don't forget to grease the front suspension - favourite fail point on MM ! You will be amazed how many grease nipples you will find on this magnificent relic.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
