1965 Morris Minor | Leysdown-on-Sea, Kent

A 1965 Morris Minor 1000, the small British family car many people know as the Moggy. The 1000 brought a curved one-piece windscreen and a roomy cabin, and it is remembered as a familiar everyday car of its day. Its rounded shape places it in the 1960s at a glance. This saloon is deep blue outside with a matching blue interior, so the colour stays consistent in every frame. Chrome detail stands out against the curved body and gives it a gentle chocolate-box look. The cabin seats four, and the 1098cc engine, the larger unit introduced in 1962, gives it a lively, humming character on the move. Condition is very good. The single soft colour and period curves suit 1960s film and television work, and the chrome catches the light well in fashion, editorial and photography shoots. At events the Minor makes a friendly period arrival. For weddings the blue works as a "Something Blue", and the car also suits personal hires. It is based in Leysdown-on-Sea, Kent.
