CLASSIC 1956 MORRIS MINOR
EXCELLENT CONDITION
RARE SPLIT SCREEN MORRIS MINOR IN EXCELLENT, ORIGINAL CONDITION.
THIS WAS ONE OF THE LAST MODELS WITH THE SPLIT SCREEN. IT HAS THE SEMAPHORE TURN INDICATORS. THIS MINOR WAS ORIGINALLY MANUFACTURED ON JANUARY 26, 1956, AND PURCHASED IN IRELAND BY A MIDWIFE FROM W.H. ALEXANDER, LIMITED, IN BELFAST ON MARCH 26 1956. IT THEN HAD THREE ADDITIONAL OWNERS UNTIL 1975 WHEN A COLLECTOR PURCHASED THE CAR AND STORED IT IN COUNTY ANTRIM, IRELAND. IN 1985 ANOTHER CAR COLLECTOR FROM ENGLAND BOUGHT THE MORRIS TO ADD TO HIS COLLECTION OF MORRIS CARS. I PURCHASED THE MINOR IN APRIL 2007 FROM THE FAMILY ESTATE SALE.
THE CONDITION OF THE MORRIS IS EXCELLENT. ALL ORIGINAL, NO BODY DAMAGE, AND NO RUST AREAS. THE UNDERSIDE IS RUST-FREE AND VERY CLEAN. EVERYTHING ON THE MORRIS WORKS PERFECTLY. THERE ARE NO ISSUES. THE INTERIOR STILL HAS THAT OLD CAR LEATHER SMELL. IT APPEARS THAT THE CAR HAS SPENT MORE TIME IN STORAGE THAN ON THE ROAD.
ALL THE CHROME ITEMS WERE REPLACED INCLUDING NEW BONNET MOTIF, NEW BUMPERS, GRILL SURROUNDS, NEW DOOR OUTER DOOR HANDLES (VERY DIFFICULT TO FIND) BONNET AND BOOT HINGES AND NEW ORIGINAL PINSTRIPING. TWO NEW REAR TIRES WERE FITTED AND A NEW ORIGINAL HEADLINER.
I HAVE THE ORIGINAL BUFF LOG BOOK OF THE PREVIOUS OWNERS PLUS THE BRITISH MOTOR HERITAGE CERTIFICATE THAT CONFIRMS THE CAR'S AUTHENTICITY. PRIOR TO BEING IMPORTED INTO THE U.S., THE MORRIS UNDERWENT THE STRINGENT MINISTRY OF TRANSPORT TEST THAT IS REQUIRED FOR ALL BRITISH VEHCILES THAT ARE MORE THAN THREE YEARS OF AGE. IT PASSED WITHOUT ANY ADVISORIES AND I HAVE THE CERTIFICATE. THE MILEAGE SHOWS 36,553 WHICH IS BELIEVED TO BE CORRECT.
THE MORRIS HAS BEEN VERY WELL CARED FOR THROUGHOUT IT'S LIFE AND IT SHOWS. MOST OF THESE MODELS ARE LONG GONE AND MOST THAT ARE AVAILABLE REQUIRE FULL RESTORATION. IT IS THE PERFECT COLLECTOR/SHOW CAR. IT RUNS AND DRIVES AS IT WOULD HAVE DONE IN 1956.

Next electric Mini Cooper due out in 2024 with a lot more range
Thu, Mar 9 2023The next-generation Mini Hardtop is expected to make its global debut in the not-too-distant future. The hatchback will be offered with gasoline- and battery-powered drivetrains, and a new report provides preliminary specifications about the electric model. One of the more significant changes will appear in advertisements and other promotional material: while the hatchback is officially known as the Hardtop in the United States and the Hatch in England, its successor will adopt the Cooper nameplate. We'll need to be patient to see how the Mini has evolved from a visual perspective but company boss Stephanie Wurst told British magazine Autocar that designers have taken it "back to its roots." It's not expected to grow in length but it will be wider than its predecessor and it will ride on a longer wheelbase. Made in China via a joint-venture with Great Wall Motors, the electric, two-door-only Cooper will be available with either a 40- or a 54-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack. Those figures correspond to the global-market model; details about the American-market car haven't been released. Range will check in at 240 miles for the smaller pack, according to Autocar, and the standard model will put 181 horsepower under the driver's right foot. Buyers who need more will be asked to step up to the Cooper SE, which will be rated at 215 horsepower. In comparison, the current Cooper SE has 181 horsepower, about 110 miles of driving range, and a 32.6-kilowatt-hour battery pack. Made in England, the gasoline-powered Cooper hasn't been detailed yet. Autocar learned that there's a good chance the model will only be offered with an automatic transmission, so get a stick now while you still can. Front-wheel-drive will continue to come standard. We'll hear more about the next Cooper in the coming months, but it's not the next new model that we'll see from Mini. The third-generation Countryman previewed earlier in 2023 is tentatively scheduled to enter production in Germany in late 2023; it will be available with gasoline- and battery-powered drivetrains as well. The electric Cooper will reportedly arrive in May 2024, about two months before its gasoline-burning counterpart, so it will go on sale here in time for the 2025 model year. When it lands, it will compete in the same segment as the Fiat 500e. Related video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
Electric Mini tows a Boeing 777 airplane, because why not?
Fri, May 31 2019Car manufacturers seem to love hitching up to massive planes. Even Mini is getting onboard with the trend, and it's using a camouflaged version of the electric Mini on its way. Now, we saw the Mini Cooper S E completely uncovered a few days ago in spy photos, so make sure to check those out to see what the car will really look like. If it's the plane pulling you're after, watch the video above. Mini collaborated with Lufthansa on this one. The airliner provided a Boeing 777F freight aircraft for the stunt. That airplane has an unladen weight of approximately 150 tons, or just about 300,000 pounds. Needless to say, it's safely over whatever towing rating Mini is going to give its electric car. This Mini doesn't pull the airplane far, but it's enough to prove the brand's point: Electric equals lots of torque. Like we mentioned before, others have pulled off a similar stunt. A few notable examples include the Toyota Tundra towing the space shuttle for 12 miles, Porsche hauling an Airbus 380 with various Cayennes and then a Tesla Model X pulling a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner. The Model X is most like Mini's stunt, since it's also an electric vehicle. We'll note that the airplane towed by the Mini is also far lighter than that towed by the Tesla. Still, to have enough torque and traction to move a 300,000-pound airplane is impressive, and if nothing else, it's entertaining to watch. Reports have indicated that the new electric Mini will share the BMW i3's powertrain and battery pack, so that means it may have required only 168 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque to pull this off.
Mini five-door spotted alongside next Clubman
Wed, 14 May 2014Is Mini constricting its staggering array of model variants or expanding it? That depends largely on which way you look at it. Because while some models may not make the cut as the second-generation family is gradually replaced with the third, others appear to be joining the fold. They just might not bear different model names.
Take, for example, the vehicle pictured here. It's a five-door version of the latest Mini hatchback, but won't necessarily replace the Clubman wagon - particularly since that's precisely what appears to be pictured alongside it. While the five-door hatch appears to simply add an extra set of portals - full-size ones, from the look of it, not backwards-opening half-doors - to the existing three-door version, the new Clubman appears not only longer but also wider, giving it that much more interior space.
Of course that could all be an optical illusion generated by swirly camouflage designed to do just that, but from the apparent readiness of both models, we'll find out one way or another soon enough - whatever they're called.
