Manufacturer description

The original Morris Minor MM Series was produced from 1948-1953 and our 1:76 scale model is based on the two-door saloon, complete with split windscreen and the low formation headlights set into the radiator grille. Decorated in a dull blue green with chrome finish, our Morris Minor is registered NJO 976. The famous Morris Cowley badge in red, silver and blue sits proudly on the bonnet, confirming its Oxfordshire roots where Morris Motors Limited reigned supreme. Amazing to think that this little car housed an engine that pushed it to just 64 mph but delivered 40 miles to the gallon!
