The Morris Minor is a small car from Britain that was first shown at the Earls Court Motor Show in London on September 20, 1948. The car was made by Alec Issigonis and more than 1. 3 million were produced from 1948 to 1972. There were three different versions: the MM, the Series II, and the 1000 series. At first, there were two types of cars available: a two-door type and a tourer type. Then, in 1950, a four-door type was added. In 1952, a type with a wooden frame was introduced, and in 1953, van and truck versions were also made available.
