It’s known that pre-war Minors have appeared in a dozen or so movies, including box-office hits such as Genevieve and Summer Holiday. This 1934 Two-seater (VE 9944) appeared in a 1995 film entitled “Circle of Friends” with a cast that included Minnie Driver and Colin Firth.

Join us for the Network’s 2025 Rally

By Current Events

The Pre-war Minor Network’s 2025 Annual Rally is to be hosted by Garry & Marilyn Waiting in the magnificent county of Cumbria. The Lakes & Dales Rally will be based upon the Crooklands Hotel, near Kendal and will be held over the three days Sunday 15th – Tuesday 17th June. The change from our traditional Friday to Sunday format was necessary as hotel availability over our preferred period was severely restricted. The rally dinner will take place on the evening of Monday 16th June at the hotel. Also available are Motorhome and Camping facilities:  There are two sites very close to the hotel. Little Acre Holiday Park which is situated across the road from the hotel beside the canal, or Waters Edge Caravan Park which is a very short walk down the road. There are also plenty of B&B properties available to rent in and around Kendal and very close to our base.
The two planned tours will take in some spectacular views across the Lake District National Park and will include visits to Shap Fell, Ullswater, The Eden Valley, Kirkstone Pass, Lake Windermere, Bowness, Kirby Lonsdale, Dent Station (on the Settle-Carlisle line) and Sedbergh.
This is the Network’s 15th rally, although our first in the North of England, and will provide those Minorists who live in the northern counties an opportunity to meet-up with some of their southern counterparts and take part in what promises to be a memorable event.

HURRY – JUST TWO ONE SLOTS REMAINING !

IOTW no.778

By IOTW

This photograph of a 1934 Renfrewshire registered Morris Minor Saloon (HS 7715) has little going for it. Other than the car and its behatted, smiling owner standing alongside and without a caption, very little further information can be gleaned. Scores of photographs from this era and of this ilk are posted to the main auction sites on a daily basis.

Triple M Corner no.373

By Triple M corner

The Triple M series of MG’s all belong to a family of models that commenced with the 1929 MG Midget and continued through to the mid-thirties via a long string of four and six cylinder OHC engined cars that forged the marques identity.

MG Magna Coupe (SN 5648) was first registered in Dunbartonshire, Scotland in 1932. This scanned image was taken from a tiny print that had been cut from a photograph album and was captioned “Miss Elsom and my Magna.”
