Another classic car from the Morris Motors Limited stable comprises the
four-door Morris Six, their first six-cylinder post war vehicle,
launched in 1948 and costing £607, including tax, although it went up to
£671 in 1949. With a top speed of 82.5 mph, petrol consumption was
quite heavy at only 20 mpg. When production ceased in 1953, nearly
12,500 had rolled off the assembly line. Painted in grey with a mass of
contrasting silver masking to the exterior bodywork. Registered JWV
833, the model features dark red seating, again in contrast to the grey
exterior. The characteristic Morris Six radiator grille is reproduced
in silver and black. The Morris badge appears on the boot lid of the
vehicle above the black and silver square number plate, while the very
solid looking bumpers are also masked silver.
