AI Listing Summary
This 1925 Morris Oxford 'Bullnose' Doctor's Coupe, sold for £5,400, is a rare survivor with a Cowley 1½ Litre engine. While it runs and drives and has undergone recent recommissioning, it's an older restoration that would benefit from further refurbishment. It retains appealing original features such as a Mann Egerton plaque and Barker headlamp dipping mechanism.

Description
Introduced in 1913, the basic Morris ‘Bullnose’ design lasted until 1926 by which time its variants accounted for an impressive forty-five per cent of new sales in the UK.
