Morris

Morris was once one of Britain's dominant mass market manufacturers, producing family saloons, small cars, estates and commercial vehicles in enormous variety. The Minor, Oxford, Marina and Ital sit beside Morris badged versions of the Mini and other British Leyland products. Because ordinary Morris cars were built to work rather than to be preserved, the remaining register increasingly reflects enthusiasts, specialist variants and vehicles that survived decades beyond their original everyday role.
