Gratuitous automotive photos from Copenhagen
I saw this Austin Minor near the campus of the Copenhagen Business School. And I thought it was a beautiful thing. So was this Volvo driving through the City Hall Square:
I'm flying back to the U.S. today (Friday). So this will probably be the last of my Copenhagen dispatches.

I like your choice of words. The Minor really is a beautiful thing.

Is it not a Morris Minor? I learned to drive in one in the UK in 1958.

Of course the most beautiful Austin is the Austin Healey (before they messed it up with external door handles and a fixed windshield)

All I know is that it said "Austin Minor" on the back. But yeah, it appears to be identical to the better known Morris Minor. Austin and Morris merged in 1952, so I guess they slapped the name Austin on a few of the Minors.
