Description Smart and sound Minor Convertible conversion; very solid crying out for use - the sun's finally out This nice little Minor comes to us with just a V5C.

It was purchased for the vendor's mother in 2020 and used sparingly until she was no longer able to enjoy it.

A check on Experian shows that it was originally black, changing to blue in 1998 - possibly at the point of its restoration.

We note that in 2018 it was the subject of a Category N insurance classification - Non Structural Damage.

It has clearly not been used for a while and could do with a good service and comes with some spares in the boot.

The hood is a good fit, in good order including the rear window and folds easily and neatly.

This sound little Morris is just looking for some summer miles and smiles.
