A car that dominated sales in the UK from 1916 -1926 with close to half of all cars sold

1925 Morris 'Bullnose' Cowley Tourer £10,000 -£14,000 for sale with Classic Car Auctions on 25th-26th March

It certainly appealed to the car buying public. Now fully refurbished to an outstanding level this beauty is a true delight to drive and does our automotive heritage proud.

Charles Smalley of CCA, says: 'Introduced during 1913, the basic Morris 'Bullnose' design lasted until 1926 by which time its variants accounted for an impressive forty-five per cent of new car sales in the UK.'

The Cowley was powered by a four-cylinder side-valve engine displacing 1,548cc and rated at 11.9hp, driving through a cork clutch and a three-speed gearbox. It gets its name from the distinctive nickel 'bullnose' radiator which became a symbol of quality and at affordable price that competitors could not match.

This lovely four-seat tourer was fully restored some years ago and remains very impressive. More recent works include a complete engine overhaul and a fresh interior retrim.

This car is just one of many beautiful cars coming to Auction as CCA's first sale of 2023 at the Practical Classics Classic Car and Restoration Show 24th -26th March at the NEC, Birmingham, B40 1NT. All lots are available to view online where you can also register to bid in person, online or via commission.
