Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Something was bugging me and I just checked: there was in fact a Morris Mini, as well as the Austin.

I just googled the differences. It appears to be a huge can of worms best left unopened.

The originals were badged as the Morris Mini Minor and the Austin Seven in 1959. If we had gone down the other trouser leg of time, most of us would be driving supersevens.

So ‘Mini’ was actually 3 cars and should have been classified as ‘some minis’.

Or subdivided into individual entries so there’s bloody dozens of ‘em, virtually indistinguishable. Bit like that bloody deathmatch that consisted mainly of shrews.
