Bicycle manufacturer William Morris introduced his first car. br/>the 'Bullnose' Oxford. in 1913 starting a tradition of Morris
Oxfords that was to continue right up until 1971. With an enviable
reputation for reliability and quality. by the end of the 1920s
Morris had become Britain's largest car manufacturer holding a 51%
share of its home market. Although smaller models- such as the
'Minor' and the 'Ten'- were the mainstays of the range. Morris also
maintained an interest in larger cars. A completely new car was
announced for 1934 with a longer and stronger chassis and flexible
mountings for the 2002cc engine whilst the gearbox gained
synchromesh. Initially it kept the 'Six' name (reflecting the
number of cylinders in the engine) but this changed to 'Sixteen'
which came from the car's tax horsepower category.

'Old Jo' as this Oxford Six is affectionately known is in
absolutely lovely condition and has been a regular sight at
historic car shows in Surrey and Sussex for the last 20
years. The vendor is reluctantly selling to make space for a
recent purchase and is looking for a new home that will hopefully
cherish 'Old Jo' in the same way he has. The exterior is finished
in blue over black paintwork and the interior has blue carpets and
blue leather bench seats. front and rear. which are also in very
good condition. The car was manufactured with several interesting
features such as a fold-out table for rear seat passengers. a rear
window privacy blind (driver operated). a sliding roof to let the
sun in and a hydraulic brake system which was still uncommon even
on more expensive makes at the time. The car was restored
between 1972 and 1976. when some features such as the freewheel
option were disabled to make the car safer for modern roads. The
car has a wealth of history including the 1934 Operation Manual. a
fold-out Lube Chart. a DVLA-supplied keeper history and a stamped
road tax license book showing history from 1956 to 1963. Also
included within the file is a current MoT test certificate to May
2016 as well as previous ones dating back to 2001. The file also
contains invoices from the last 20 years which confirm the high
standard of care and maintenance that the car has been subject to.
All in all. 'Old Jo' would seem like an ideal vintage
investment!
