1971 Morris Minor Traveller

Highlights

  • Two owners from new
  • In current ownership for 10 years
  • Impressive history file

The Appeal

An institution when it comes to classic car motoring, the Morris Minor is an evergreen favourite and its sure-footedness and ease of driving are just part of its charm. Easy to keep on the road, thanks to legions of specialists selling parts and an ardent club backing, it is also dirt cheap to run. Undoubtedly one of those cars that simply brings joy to your life.
This well-presented 1971 Traveller finished in Aqua has seen £2,200 spent in the last 3 years and is fitted with many sensible upgrades which enhance the car's usability and safety. The current owner has owned it for 10 years, having spent over £8,000 on repairs, maintenance, servicing and improvements, all confirmed by an impressive and carefully organised binder of invoices.

It has only covered around 300 miles since the owners took it on but has ensured it's been well maintained and MOT’d. The family states a lack of use as the main reason for selling.

Summary

This example is the perfect reason to demonstrate why these cars have remained in the hearts of the British public. This car has been well maintained, with the owner taking advantage of the exemplary parts availability, along with plenty of advice and social meets. 

With almost every aspect of the mechanical durability along with some useful upgrades in check, there’s plenty of evidence that this car has been truly loved, it would be impossible not to fall for its charms.
