It was used for picking up lump coal by a mate of his.

I borrowed it for a trip back to Norfolk to see the girlfriend that would become my wife, it was a long trip with no M5 and very little dual carriageway.

How times change - we should have bought a Mini not a Morgan laugh2

I bought a new Mini Mayfair in 1985 when I lived in Jersey, two weeks later I took it back as the rust was coming through al over the roof.

Unreal - it amazes me how people are so besotted with these and Land Rovers at the moment we have them rusting / corroding away all around us downhere - a cult thing going on I think.

Five and a half thousand for a rusting shell is just f stupid.
