Morris Minor (Paperback)

The post war Morris Minor, designed by Alec Issigonis, was one of the most popular British Cars. 2008 will mark 60 years since the first production models rolled off the production lines at Cowley in Oxfordshire. In this celebratory publication Ray Newell looks in detail at the development of the wide range of models produced during a production run which spanned twenty two years in the UK. Using mainly contemporary materials spanning four decades he transports the reader back to an era when the pace of life was much slower and the marketing of the vehicles was considerably different to the slick advertising of today. Isogonics sketches of the prototype cars, sales brochures, promotional materials, and rare and unusual photographs make this a fascinating book.
