Classic Lessons In A Moggy

Another reader-supplied link to another Autoblog story.

An ADI in Taunton is giving lessons in a Morris Minor – or Moggy. The only part I disagree with in the story is that they say the car is “30 years old”.

It is an “H” reg – and that was issued in 1969/70. So the car is actually 40 years old!

You still see quite a few of these around, and they fetch decent prices. They’re beautiful cars – I can remember when a neighbour has one with a split windscreen and (I think) little flip out arms as direction indicators.

Mind you, although it is a great gimmick, I can’t see how learning to drive in a car like this is preparing young drivers for their life on the road – especially when the first car they get is likely to be at least a 1.4 Corsa.
