Morris Minors everywhere

Our Morris 1000 Convertible is 50 years old and I felt it was time for a bit of TLC.  My Mother bought it for £445 new in 1967 and I don't think that there are many 66 year olds who can say they are still driving the same car they did when they passed their test at 17!

The logical place to go was Charles Ware's establishment in Bristol where it was a truly amazing sight - 90 Minors in various states of restoration.

The TLC is going to cost around £11,000, but when I think what I have spent in the last 25 years, it's not much and is still considerably less that if we had bought and run new cars over the same period.

Anyway, what's the alternative?
