Sorry for a strange post, but a friend bought my my first corgi Morris Minor and now I’m obsessed!

Does anyone on here collect or, could tell me where I’d find a list of all the Morris Minors and Travellers they produced please?

£300? I remember when there used to be real full-size Minors for sale in the local paper for less! :-?
