My nephew Ben married the lovely Nicola last Saturday (26th April 2008). This was the wedding car. It is a Morris Minor Traveller and was my late brother Dave's and his son Ben's pride and joy. As you can see the weather was wonderful and the wedding was wonderful.

What a grand old car. Reminds me of an old Ford that my grandparents had. Thanks for sharing this great photo.

I'm glad the wedding went well Steve, you had the best weather we've had for weeks. What a great old motor, I love these, they're so full of character. I hope the day was full of happiness as well as remembrance.

What a great 'get-away' car! And I like the colour coordination of the car and the lawn... sprinkled with dandelions.

Wow...what a great shot of thisd well cared for oldie!


I'm also glad you left the link to the information about this car. It's not that I couldn't look it up, but it's so much more tempting to add to the knowledge base when it's only a click away!!

Congrats to the happy couple.

Those Morris Minors were always so popular long after their manufacture ceased. Looking at your link I never realised production went on so long !! It's good the wedding went so well despite the families tragic loss.
Nice shot Steve
