The Morris Minor celebrates its 50th anniversary in 1998. Here, Jon Pressnell provides an illustrated compendium of information on this evergreen car. The book is a mixture of historical, technical and hobby topics. It provides first-hand insights about the work of engineer Alec Issigonis, and Jack Daniels - his right-hand man on the minor. Areas covered include: the Wolseley Eight engine choice over the flat-four engine; the minor's replacement; the minor in the US, the alta-head Minor, oddball models, the hydrolastic Minor, and twin-cam Minors; Minor scale models; anecdotes about famous owners such as Sterling Moss, Bryan Ferry and Lord Linley; and sketches of the future and the rationale behind these.

Hardback. Etat : Fine. Morris Minor ? Exploring the Legend (1998) by Jon Pressnell Haynes | ISBN: 9781859604298 Condition: Fine As sold by Crappy Old Books Some legends arrive on horseback, in armour, brandishing a sword. The Morris Minor arrived at about 45mph, wearing sensible paint, and carrying a week?s shopping plus a mildly anxious spaniel ? and somehow became more beloved than half the royal family . Morris Minor ? Exploring the Legend is Jon Pressnell?s affectionate deep-dive into the car that Britain adopted like a national pet. Not because it was the fastest, flashiest, or most glamorous thing on the road, but because it was the most companionable . The Minor doesn?t dominate a journey. It joins you for it. It looks pleased to be included. This is a Haynes book, so you already know the vibe: enthusiastic, practical, and quietly authoritative, like a friendly mechanic who also happens to be a historian. Pressnell explores what made the Minor what it was ? the design story, the development, the variations, the changes over the years, and the cultural phenomenon that followed. It?s not just ?here?s a car.? It?s ?here?s how this car became an institution.? And the Minor deserves that treatment. It?s the car that got people moving in post-war Britain, the car that lived in driveways and back lanes, the car that became the first set of keys for thousands of drivers. It?s also one of the few vehicles that can look adorable even when it?s slightly rusty and making a noise it shouldn?t. There?s a reason it?s still everywhere at shows, still restored, still argued about, still waved at on the road. The Minor has charisma without ego ? a rare combination. Inside you?ll find the delightful detail that separates casual affection from proper Minor-nerdery: model differences, design quirks, period context, and the ?that?s why it looks like that? explanations that make you start noticing Minors in old photos like you?ve joined a secret club. It?s as much about the why as the what . There?s also the gentle irony of the word ?legend.? Because the Morris Minor is not a dramatic object. It has no supercar mythology. No racing pedigree that requires reverent whispers. Its legend is built on ordinary life: school runs, Sunday drives, deliveries, courting, commuting, holidays that involved a Thermos and a packed lunch. It became legendary by being there ? by being dependable, friendly, and designed with a kind of human-scale intelligence that modern motoring sometimes forgets. This particular copy is Fine ? crisp and tidy, the sort of condition that suggests it has lived on a respectful shelf, brought out for occasional admiration and the odd moment of ?hang on, which year did they change that?? It?s ready for the next owner to enjoy without apology. Perfect for: Morris Minor owners (or those in denial about becoming one) classic car fans who love charm more than horsepower anyone who thinks nostalgia is best when it comes with facts and photos From Crappy Old Books : because the Morris Minor didn?t become a legend by shouting. It became a legend by smiling politely, starting (eventually), and carrying Britain through the decades ? one cheerful little journey at a time. N� de r�f. du vendeur 5694
