Morris Motors began in 1912 when bicycle manufacturer, William Morris, moved on from the sale, hire and repair of cars to car manufacturing.

He planned a new light car assembled from bought-in components.

In this way he was able to retain ownership by keeping within the bounds of his own capital resources.

A factory was opened in 1913 at former Oxford Military College at Cowley, Oxford, where Morris's first car, the two seat Morris Oxford 'Bullnose' was assembled.

Nearly all the major components were bought-in.

Morris Cowley was a name given to various cars produced by the Morris Motor Company from 1915 to 1958.

In 1926, the Bullnose radiator was replaced by a flat version known as the Flatnose.

These cars were built by Morris untill 1931.

The chassis was new and the suspension was updated with semi elliptic leaf springs all round plus Smiths friction type scissor shock absorbers.

The brakes are rod and spring operated with cams inside the drums to actuate.
