The Appeal

The Morris Minor enjoyed considerable commercial success worldwide, but early "Lowlight" versions are now rare. Convertible examples are even harder to find, making this car a particularly interesting variant.

Finished in green with a beige interior and fabric hood, this Morris is described by the seller as a well-maintained example. It is said to have been acquired from the family of an enthusiast before being stored undercover. The bodywork, chassis and underside are reportedly all in very good condition, whilst the floors are said to have been properly repaired in the past.

Under the bonnet, the 918 cc engine is said to run correctly, as do the four-speed manual gearbox, brakes and suspension. No MOT is currently valid and no documentation relating to service history is provided. The next owner will therefore need to arrange the necessary checks and servicing before returning the car to the road.
