An exceptionally advanced design in 1948, the Minor was the brainchild of Sir Alec Issigonis. With a monocoque chassis, independent torsion-bar front suspension, all-round hydraulic drum brakes and rack and pinion steering the model possessed excellent handling but lacked the horsepower to exploit it. However, things improved markedly when the four-cylinder 1098cc OHV A-series equipped Series V was introduced in 1962. With up to 45bhp and 60lbft of torque being transmitted to its rear wheels via a four-speed manual gearbox, the Series V was reputedly capable of 77mph. From 1965, no further major production improvements were made to the Minor, with resources being channelled into improving the ADO16 (the Minor's spiritual successor and Britain's best-selling car in the 1960s), and development of the Morris Marina, which would succeed the Minor on the Cowley production lines in 1971.

A reluctant sale of a much-loved family member, this Traveller has been in current ownership since 2013. ‘CAS 748’ has been the subject of much work to the underside and mechanicals with Staffordshire Minors having carried out welding on the chassis, with the invoices on file. Some further improvement has been made with the addition of recent tyres and new steel wheels. Offered with a collection of invoices and an old MOT certificate on file from 2013, there’s the charming ‘CAS’ registration number and a current V5C Registration Document.
