Re: Summer Rally and Pre-War Prescott 2023

When we get to the cottage, I'll have about ten days to sort one or other of the two Minors garaged there - the ex-Halbe fabric saloon and the Semis-ports. The fabric saloon is way down on power, which it shouldn't be after its incredibly expensive racing quality rebuild. I've fiddled about with the...

Is there a chance that it is just a big end? If so, the rod could be replaced from underneath. How bad is the engine?

Great news. This morning I received the document pack from the MoD along with confirmation of the Spitfire and Hurricane displays for the day. Should be quite a sight and sound!

The VMR's 25th Anniversary

If you can't wait to the Centenary of the Morris Minor in 2028, plan to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the Register in 2025!

The Register was founded at Prescott in the summer of 2000 and so we have a great deal to celebrate.

Planning will start shortly on our 2025 celebrations.
