MORRIS MINOR SII ORIGINAL PRICES
Posted: Mon Sep 16, 2013 10:15 pm
Hi Everyone.
Does anyone have details of the retail prices of a Series II particularly in 1954. Base model with extras of Smiths heater [£10 fitted by the factory?], bumper overiders [again factory fit?] and a pair of mirrors [fitted by the dealer]. Was there a delivery charge to the buyer from the dealer? Also how much was road tax? Were there any other charges levied at the buyer before he could drive the car away?
I have since come across a road test from a 28 January 1953 copy of THE MOTOR which quotes prices as: Price [basic] 4 door saloon body: £405 plus purchase tax £226.10s Total: £631.10s. Options: Smiths heater £10.10s. Radio £25.2s.6d.
Thanks Tony
