Vehicle Description
Here's the most affordable TV star tribute you'll likely ever meet.
This 1963 Morris Minor is a great way to grab attention on the
streets, and when you park it, you'll love telling people how a
similar one was used in popular UK television shows like
Heartbeat.
The light blue and white "Panda Car" is a police icon in the UK.
While they aren't quite as powerful as our Crown Vics, they are
just as much a timeless symbol of authority on that side of the
Atlantic. So while the classic design of the Morris Minor helped
put England on wheels, this one represents what happened if those
wheels violated the law. This is a proper Minor with the correct
wheel covers, badging, and trim. Plus, it really looks the part of
authority correctly with its gumball light on top, crisp Police
badging, and cheeky "PANDA 1" marking on the roof. This one needs
to look authentic, because one similar to it was used during the
long-running UK television show Heartbeat as well as part of the
comedy special The Hunt for Tony Blair.
Inside, the light blue continues on the seats, carpeting, and dash.
As a true British machine, this is a right-hand drive vehicle, and
the classic Morris steering wheel with "M" badge in the middle is
positively charming. And because you want to make sure the bad guys
are intimidated by a car with "Minor" in the name, you have
controls for the light, siren, and police light box in the rear.
But even without all the patrol car fun, this is a nice classic to
drive. The vintage center gauge cluster looks great, the gear stick
is in the perfect position, and there's even an upgraded AM/FM/CD
stereo when you're tired of hearing the police siren.
If you know British cars, then you'll love seeing all that green
when you open the hood. That's the unmistakable sign of an A-series
motor. The engine is a well-known and widely used power plant that
found a home in plenty of British vehicles. It's the backbone of
English motoring, which makes it quite robust and there's easy
parts availability. This is a fantastically original-style
presentation, which tells you this has been cared for correctly. So
you'll feel confident taking it on the road. With the control of
the four-speed manual transmission, we know you find the motor
experience quite lively.
Complete with photos of this car's star power, this was already a
cool and affordable classic even before you knew about its TV
history inspiration. You know something this unique and obtainable
won't stay available for long, so don't miss out. Call now!
