The 3 or 4 large bars of gold (a normal month's total output) when cool the next day were put into the boot of the mine manager's wife's Moris Minor 1000 for the 50 mile shopping trip to Salisbury. She stopped at the bank and a bank member of staff took them to the volt for safekeeping.
Not sure I would have trusted the suspension on my Moggie 1000 with 4 large bars of gold in the back.

First vehicle I owned. Bought it before I actually took my driving test. Passed my test came home and jumped in it for the first time to go back to work. It started to pour down with rain and the wipers were awful. Tried to brake at the works gatehouse and overshot 20ft past the barrier…fortunately raised …..pumping the foot brake like mad. It became clear the quality of the new BSM car I learnt to drive on and used for the test was far superior that’s my old Moggie.
Great passion wagon though
