Originally registered on 6th January 1971, this Series 3 Morris Minor Traveller is finished in Trafalgar Blue with contrasting lime flower trim. The previous owner had the car for over 30 years and during that period it, had extensive work carried out including all new timber structure and metalwork repairs done by Morris Minor specialist Charles Ware, with bills totalling over £7,500. Supplied with a V5 registration document, together with a good history folder, these likeable Moggy Travellers are perfect for modern day use and can carry lots of bulky items due to the trademark double doors and high roofline. Perfect for a trip to Goodwood or run to Ikea, tax free and miles of smiles. Consigned by Stewart Banks
