What a lovely example - complete with the "clap-hand" wipers! It sounds super with the first gear whine and lovely, farty exhaust! Great insights and commentary, Ed!

One of the best simplest cars ever made ! Easy to work on ! So reliable ! You can replace just about anything on it easily ! In the early seventies you could buy them cheap and drive them until they fell apart !

Blimey, it's Twincam!

Refreshingly accurate presentation. Enjoyed that.

I loved the "farting" noise their exhausts made, on the over-run, and how they were always driven by vicars or teachers! Would be great to buy a restored one, if I had the room.

This Morris Minor brings back memories, my first car was a second hand 1956 Morris Minor in 1963 i paid 250.00 pounds Au back then. 1st and 2nd gear were very low gears for our Australian conditions, it was a good car for my 1st purchase 👍 Au

Driven this car. One can see the road when we step on the clutch or brake. Need more ventilations just open front quarter glass.

I remember putting a clothes peg on the choke when the control started to wear!

Sorry to rain on your parade, mate, since you like the CHARACTER of these! But I personally think it, ànd other related BMC cars, are "one step forward, one step backwards! YES, it has independent front suspension. And although having an AXLE at the rear is sometimes NOT uncomfortable (if it's well located!) , what is NOT acceptable, is the (so - called) "Quarter Eliptic" springing. WHY Quarter Eliptic? The leaf springs are neither eliptic, half eliptic, or anything but FLAT. T resulting effect is the cars fitted with these springs (including Morris Oxfords) have a bouncing jiggly sort of ride at the back - even without going over any bumps! This ruined so many of their cars. When the Morris Marina came out, it had normal semi eliptic springs AND A PROPER RIDE!
