Update from France - The Restoration of Johnny (The Morris)
Neil in France continues to make progress with the restoration of his 1972, Morris 1100, affectionately known as Johnny (The Morris)...
...computer issues mean that Neil lost a number of his latest progress images but he is still able to show us that the rear subframe has been installed – indeed so too the fuel tank and rear running gear which in turn has led to Neil being able to pump up Johnny’s suspension...
...we said there had been progress!

This week's cover image shows a pair of the IMV Austin 1300 - the image comes from Dalibor in Serbia but it's a rare sight anywhere.
Estonia Independence Day
Today we celebrate Estonian Independence Day (Eesti Vabariigi aastapäev)...
...since gaining independence a number of examples of the ADO16 have found their way to Estonia – our featured car was for example imported from Finland; it s now located in Räpina and owned by Kristen, it’s a 1971Mark II, Morris 1300 Super Deluxe 2-door that looks to be unrestored, unmolested, solid and with its original paint; we think that makes it rather charming, finished in its Flame Red with a Black interior.

A good round town thrash wagon! 👍😎
I like the neat repair to the top of the dash where the speaker grille would have been.
Does it still have the finnish plates?
We've just added a lovely little (and yes we do mean little!) brochure for the Austin 1100 from the Belgium market to our brochures archive.
Nearly all of our brochures are available for you to view in all their glory! A preview of today's addition is (as usual) available in the comments section below....⬇️⬇️

If you're looking to buy a new car, what better way for it be presented to you than in a range of glossy brochures? The only problem appears to be that...Brunei National Day
Today we celebrate the National Day of the Nation of Brunei, the Abode of Peace (Negara Brunei Darussalam, نڬارا بروني دارالسلام) with images of what we think is the only ADO16 in the country...
...a Mark I, Vanden Plas Princess 1100 – unfortunately we’re not able to tell you anything about the car except that it’s not one of the many thousands of cars to appear in the collection list belonging to the Sultan of Brunei – it’s a little more exclusive than that!
With special thanks to James Cheuk.

Love the number plate.
Cilla Black had one of these in the programme about her home movies.
