Description
Showing just 90,092 miles; V5C shows only
six former keepers; strong service history, sensible mileage and careful
ownership, it stands as a lovely slice of 1960s motoring ready for its next
custodian
First registered in 1968, this charming Morris
Minor 1000 Saloon, powered by the ever-faithful 1098cc A-series engine. Representing the quintessential
British family car of its era. The current V5C shows only six former keepers, a
pleasingly modest number for a Minor of this age.
Purchased by the vendor
in 2022, it has clearly been cherished, with the wheels professionally restored
in 2023, adding to its tidy and well-presented
appearance.
The
paperwork accompanying the car is particularly appealing. It includes the
original proof of purchase from November 1969, along with service history up to
82,426 miles. The odometer now shows just 90,092 miles, suggesting steady,
gentle use over the decades.
The history file also contains receipts for
servicing and maintenance, old MOT certificates, the current V5C, 15 previous
MOTs, nine service stamps, two handbooks, a workshop parts manual, and a
collection of invoices — a wonderfully comprehensive archive for enthusiasts of
classic Morris Minors.
A delightful example of the much-loved Minor 1000, this car offers
the charm, usability and simple mechanical honesty that have made the model a
cornerstone of British motoring heritage. With its strong history, sensible
mileage and careful ownership, it stands as a lovely slice of 1960s motoring
ready for its next custodian.
