This vehicle has just come in and is under evaluation. You are probably wondering why our cars seem more expensive than the prices shown in the classic car guides. The answer is that we have been producing Durable Morris Minors with long term futures for the last 32 years, not just ‘classic’ cars with a new MOT and service. All Morris Minors are over 38 years old and the majority of them patched up underneath to pass MOTs over the years. Even ones that are supposed to be first class are often not good. Recently a traveller described as ‘ready for showing’ was purchased on an internet auction site for £5000.00. The new owner came to us for advice and some minor improvements and was horrified to find out that the chassis was badly rotting away under the carefully applied underseal. We cut out all the weak patched areas and replaced them with new guaranteed purpose made steel sections, injected internally with wax oil. The cost of dealing with it long term was £2000.00 plus. Because Morris Minors work well even with minimal servicing they usually need a lot of pulling together to get them safe and reliable long term, to our standards. On average we put £800.00 of parts and two or three days of labour in to this area alone. In the case of a major rebuild in excess of 350 hours of labour and thousands of pounds worth of parts go into the job. Cosmetics come second to function, so a £4000.00 car from us will look quite ordinary but function brilliantly and be ever so strong in the important places. Coming to us removes the risk and complexity from purchasing a vehicle and ensures you will drive away with a safe, reliable, guaranteed vehicle.

Some History of the Morris Minor
Featuring torsion bar independent front suspension, rack and pinion steering and a four speed synchromesh gearbox, it was the first post-war design from Alec Issigonis, later to design the Mini. The car was designed by Issigonis to be a working-class, affordable car but with the luxuries of a higher spec vhicle. This it succeeded in doing, with superior handling and a roomy cabn. It was this combination of lxury and affordability that helped the British Motor Corporation (BMC) o sell over 1.6 million Morris Minors.
