FANS of one of Britain's best loved cars will be converging on Beamish Museum this weekend.

The North-East Morris Minor Club is holding its annual rally at the museum, near Stanley, County Durham, today until Sunday.

About 60 Moggies are expected to be on display, some from other parts of the country.

Club chairman Joseph Berriman said: "We have even got one coming from Holland.

"Anyone who has got a Morris Minor is welcome to come. All kinds of different models will be there.''

Many of the enthusiasts will be camping at the museum.

Owners can join the rally for a day on Sunday if they drive to the nearby Shepherd and Shepherdess pub at 9.30am.
