Another British cult classic of which many people will have fond memories of travelling off on beach holidays, tightly packed in with their family and luggage. Launched in 1953, production ran for an impressive 18 years, over 215, 000 were originally made. A very pretty estate with its two front doors and wooden rear frame.
This one is offered in rose taupe. Despite being restored all the way back in 2015, it is still very hard to even pick a fault with the car visually. The deep shine is still prominent and there are no signs of rust or bubbling. It remains in stunning condition with both paint and wood in very good order. The white steel wheels combined with chrome hub caps and bumpers really set the car off and it would stand out at any car show. The red interior is equally as impressive as the exterior and shows little signs of wear having been retrimmed in 2015. Morris Newton seats were fitted for improved comfort. The brilliant visuals of this car are backed up by very good mechanicals. The engine starts promptly from cold and runs very smoothly with that lovely Morris Minor burble, the gearbox is also very smooth. A new battery was recently fitted. The sale includes a current registration document as well as a number of old MOT’s.
Estimate: £8, 000 – 10, 000
