Default Morris Oxford...Beautiful

Hey Guys,
I spotted a beautiful Morris Oxford today in town today. Was on a scooter but managed to take a few pics.

Looks to me like the Oxford is quite on the road, not on a scooter. See properly, all 4 wheels are on the road. What are you talking about?

Too good Sam!! Btw, is that a taxicab Or is it just the paintjob?? Or is it due to the quality of the pic that it seems to be one??

True, I too felt the same way!
Anyways, I was expecting this to be the 60s Farina Oxford until I opened the thread....but its ok, 'long as its very much a classic!

Taxicab? Is that black or is that green? In any case, that is a very elegant posterior.

Cyrus what makes you say thats an Oxford rather than a Landmaster? The Morris badge on the boot is from a Morris Minor anyways, so it isnt original. I LOVE that colour scheme for the Landy though.

Exactly, because we saw an Amby in Goa with an Oxford badge as well. Does that make it an Oxford?

He has taken a leaf out of Kasli's book perhaps, like his Packard.

Nothing special, it has a diesel engine, Amby dash, and essentially needs a ground up resto. You interested?
