Minor Modifications

Even though the last Morris Minor was produced over 25 years ago, and relatively few of them were ever built in the first place (over 30 million VWs have been produced compared to only 1.6 million Minors), it has survived to this day in quite astounding numbers, and in some pretty far flung corners of the world.

How did the Minor manage this?

It's largely thanks to resourceful owners grafting foreign parts onto their Minors when original parts weren't available, and to those who bought their Minor on limited funds and have made and fitted cheap 'performance' modifications. It's these grafts, bodges and hack-jobs that have evolved into tried and tested Minor Modifications. They allow the Minor to continue to be used as reliable daily transport, in a fast-paced, hectic world of motorways and roundabouts. A world that simply didn't exist when the Minor was first designed. A suitably modified Minor is still capable of mixing it with the rest.

Whatever your situation, be it a London commuter, a taxi-driver in India, or a sales-rep in New Zealand, there's a Minor Modification that will suit you and keep you driving your favourite little car for many years yet.
