RE>Faulty Towers/Cleases Red mini? 11/8/96
Bazil's car is a Morris 1100, which were very common in the UK in the early
'70's. Having grown up in England during that period, 1100's are engrained in
my psyche; I believe we actually owned one, which my dad traded in on an
Austin Maxi. I'd need a closer look to identify specifically what year the
vehicle might be. By happenstance, PBS is showing an episode of Fawlty Towers
here in the New York area tonight, perhaps it will be your famous "Duck a
l'Orange" episode!

Did anyone out here watch the Faulty Towers episodes?
The one where Bazel's car failed him on his way to pick up something very
important and was on a ridgid time schedule. The ole car wasn't starting.
Well, he gets really pissed at his car on the side of the road and starts
giving it a warning. Of which, it didn't do anything, so he runs and gets
limb off a near by tree and thrashs it vigerously. Pretty funny scene.
What type of car (Mini?) was that? And what year? As well as any other
specifics about that little red car.
It was pretty amazing a stick like insect that Clease is, he fit in that car.
