Morris Minor Van PostEurop
entry 2013
Launched in 1953, five years after the original Morris Minor
saloon, the Light Commercial Vehicle range proved hugely popular with firms
large and small thanks to its ease of use and sizable carrying capacity. The
Royal Mail Morris Minor in particular became something of a British institution
thanks in part to its length of service, with bright red vans being used to
pick up and deliver mail into the late 1970s.
Austin FX4
Designed by Austin’s Eric Bailey and introduced in 1958, the
manufacture of this much-loved ‘black cab’ stretched for 39 years. With a
separate body and chassis, and initially powered by a 2.2-litre, four-cylinder
engine, the FX4 was a rugged workhorse where practicality and ease of
maintenance were key considerations as six-figure mileages were the norm.
Production of this iconic design was later taken over by LTI (London Taxis
International).
Ford Anglia 105E
When the term ‘panda car’ was first coined in the mid 1960s,
it denoted a small saloon such as the Ford Anglia 105E where sections of
bodywork were finished in contrasting colours. The Anglia was one of a number
of different vehicles used to meet the growing need for motorised patrol cars in
police forces across the UK. In addition to being modestly priced, it was
reliable, economical to run and easy to manoeuvre.
Land Rover Defender 110
The original Land Rover entered production in 1948 and since
then countless variations have followed with different wheelbases and body
styles. The vehicle has long been favoured by the British Army and by farmers
because of its agility off road, while emergency services such as Her Majesty’s
Coastguard were also quick to adopt the model for its resilience and ability to
carry life-saving equipment to the remotest areas.
