Morris Minor 1953

Rare 1953 Morris Minor Split Screen. Good Condition. Great Driver. Classic Insurance. MOT Exempt And Free Road Tax. £3950A cracking little entry level classic, fresh from long term dry storage. She has now been recommissioned and is ready to hit the road once more. The car comes with a standard UK V5 document and can be driven anywhere in the UK without the need for reregistration or import duties.Last on the road in 2015, she wasnt legally required to have an MOT due to her age, but she was regularly tested from 2008, passing her last MOT in October 2014, a clear sign of careful upkeep over the years.Driving well, she can be thoroughly enjoyed just as is, with the added option of further improvement if the new owner chooses.Fitted with the larger 1098cc engine, she starts on the button, runs quietly and easily keeps up with modern traffic, cruising effortlessly at 55 to 60 mph.The gearbox is smooth, with none of the crunching often associated with the Moggie. The steering is light and precise, the brakes and handbrake are effective, though not quite up to modern standards.The interior is well presented, showing some signs of its 72 years, and it retains the correct banjo steering wheel. The bodywork is bright and shiny, showing some age related blemishes as expected on a 72 year old car. The tyres are in good condition, as are the steel wheels and chrome hubcaps.A sought after period external metal sun visor is also fitted, an accessory that would cost around £450 on its own if purchased today.Please keep in mind that shes 72 years old, and like any classic car, there may be areas that need attention or room for potential improvement. DELIVERY - We can arrange delivery anywhere in the UK or Ireland at very reasonable rates.
