I finally got round to picking up the Minor today after it's long, long restoration. Here's some pics:
It's slow, noisy, bumpy and the brakes (which admittedly are brand new and need to be bedded in) are appalling. However, it does make rather good raspberry sounds on the overrun and it's actually quite jolly to drive. While they're both estate cars, there are few similarities between these two:
The bright blue covers on the front seats are just the dust covers to protect the new upholstery - I've left them on so that @Cycliste can do an unveiling when she's here this weekend. Unfortunately she won't be able to drive it, as no-one appears to do a classic car policy which permits non-UK resident named drivers.
