I can't help but think of John Cleese whenever I see an 1100. (Fawlty Towers - tree whipping incident, Clockwise - "we don't need a road - it's grass!!") That said, my dad once owned a mint Morris 1300GT. Bit him on the  though after he sold it and it was subsequently used as a getaway car in an armed bank-raid when his name was still on the papers! |

A friend of my dad's had a similar experience with a '69 Jag XJ6 Series 1 that he owned in the late 70s / early 80s. It had been stolen, used in bank robbery, recovered and returned to the owner, who sold it to dad's friend. Sometime before he bought it (not sure when), it was resprayed in black - the original colour was pink, which was visible under the bonnet & in the panel shuts  However, for some reason, the car was still highlighted on the police system, & he got stopped in central London by armed police, who thought he was one of the bank robbers!! As far as I know he still owns it, but it's been laid up in a barn in Wales for years with a blown engine  Back on topic, that 1100 looks in very good order  However, IMHO, it really should be on the old fashioned white on black number plates as the modern ones look out of place |

although the 1100 looks a bit "hatchbacky" they're actually saloons. There was also an "estate" version (branded countryman) that looked like this:   sorry. had to be done! ;D |
