An excellent condition honest useable classic Morris Minor convertible ready for that great Spring and Summer we are going to enjoy this year.

Solid, well looked after, and regularly waxoyled, last time last year, Ruby is all ready and up to go. Having driven Ruby around Chelsea for a few weeks I can say she is a delight to drive, receiving more attention and admiring glances than any Porsche or Ferrari.

Renovated and sold in 2004 by CHARLES WARE'S MORRIS MINOR CENTRE of Bristol, renowned Morris Minor experts who maintained Ruby throughout her life from sale by them to date including expert specialist conversion in 2011 as well as 3 wax oil treatments, the most recent being only last year.

Discreet modifications include hydraulic clutch, upgraded brakes, electronic ignition and halogen headlights to name but a few; yet retains its 1962 looks and charm. Drives beautifully, easily keeping up with modern central London traffic.

Mr and Mrs Alexander Flood acquired this beauty from CHARLES WARE'S MORRIS MINOR CENTRE in 2004 including the Charles Ware 5 Star package for a hugely reasonable £4891. 20p. She had covered a modest 69, 230miles and was supplied with an unleaded system as well as a comprehensively injected chassis.

In 2010 Mr and Mrs Alexander Flood treated Ruby to another wax injection as well as a £1904. 14p annual holiday trip to CHARLES WARE'S MORRIS MINOR CENTRE who also supplied and fitted a reconditioned gearbox, new clutch and spigot bush, a hydraulic clutch conversion, brake servo, replaced steering rack and 2 track rod ends, as well as her usual annual pampering.

Living in England's sunny Somerset tempted Mr and Mrs Alexander F to treat Ruby in 2011 to the full hair down treatment and received the full renowned CHARLES WARE'S expert convertible conversion for £2213. 98p. They knew she was worth it.

Ruby has been a Somerset girl, pampered and spoiled all her life. She has been well looked after as befits a stunning beauty and is now looking for a new lover and Sugar Daddy/ Mummy and like all great beauties delighted to travel anywhere and make a new home anywhere.

Ruby's maintenance file is extensive, being wax oil injected again only last year being fully serviced at Charles Ware with every last thing addressed for £983.
When serviced by Charles Ware in the previous year in 2016 she also received a modern stereo and a beautiful set of wheels that together with the service came to £984. 22p. She had an extensive £530. 10p Charles Ware service in 2015 that included, along with new air filter and spark plugs, an oil pressure switch. All brakes were removed and de-dusted with the rear off side rebuilt as well as all re-torqued. In 2014 she had a more modest annual service costing a mere £171. 00, as was the 2013 service. In 2012 Ruby's annual was similarly modest with Charles Ware repairing the front brakes, repairing an exhaust bow and replacing bypass hose which came in at £211. 32p

Ruby is a beauty. She is easy and fun to drive, in town and country. Just looking at her in the morning really does warm the heart of any car lover. When out she receives so many warm smiles and greetings from other road users and passers by; she is such a delight to be out with.

We hope you too enjoy a new love in your life that owning Ruby will bring and cherish her. And, let's face it, she is an appreciating classic that will give you more reward than the miserly interest rates from any bank or current stocks as well as a daily smile on your face.
