Closely related to the MG M type but with less fussy side valve engine, the little Morris can be relied on to provide miles of smiles linked to easy maintenance and economy. This was Morris Motor’s answer to the Austin Seven, which had gained various sporty derivatives by this time. To find a nice little Morris is more unusual and definitely worth considering.
The charming maroon and black example offered here had a full photographed rebuild during 2003-2005 and has been with the vendor since 2010. Recent work has seen the fuel tank replaced, a new battery and the starter overhauled. We are told that the fuel gauge is not working otherwise all seems very nice and ready to use. The camel coloured vinyl hood is good and easy to raise and stow.
Offered with the Morris is a V5C registration certificate and the aforesaid file of photographs and correspondence regarding the rebuild.
