On a cold Friday in February, my colleague and I cross the countryside to collect a motor car. In this part we pick up the car and discuss some of the deepest mysteries of the universe.
It's a lovely Morris 1000, I know this is a bit of an old video now, but I can understand why you would have been excited! You were right about no synchromesh on 1st! I had a Morris 1000 saloon once; a 1970 model - J reg - which I also drove on a dual carriageway. I noticed you were driving at 60. I can hear the engine screaming away! I found mine was certainly best on a good level stretch of road. I remember when I found myself driving at 65 mph, and then up to 71. How long did you have it? I only had my moggy for a few months! I tried doing a double de-clutch changing down to 1st once, but I didn't manage properly.
I remember it had actually spiked in price in early 2012 for some reason. A year later it was back down below 109.9. I'm reasonably hopeful the same will happen this time around.
@@lucythemoggy1970 We are, although we left university almost a decade ago, and sadly I haven't seen him since. I do still have several classics, check out my recent videos.
well done chaps, how does the insurance workout compared to a"normal" car, as i have a 68 minor for my niece. she of course wants a modern car, trying to argue the case for my moggie "Molly"
If you get a classic car insurance policy, it can actually work out pretty cheap. My quote was about £700 cheaper than it would have been to insure myself on my previous, modern car.
