Sunstar Morris Minor 1/12 Scale
The Minor was introduced at London's first post-war motor show at Earls Court in October 1948, after a gestation period of more than five years. Designed by the legendary Alec Issigonis (later knighted and better known as the designer of the Mini), the Minor offered a range of technical innovations at a budget price.
Advertising for the new Minor made much of its 'big car' features. The 1949 sales brochure proudly trumpeted that the new Morris was "the world's supreme small car" and "designed on big car lines then scaled down to make it the most economical Real Car ever to be built anywhere in the world". The marketing people concentrated on the new features, including the mono-construction body, independent front suspension and seating arrangements, with all passengers seated within the wheelbase.
This model features full opening doors, wind down windows and a very detailed interior. Two versions are being offered - the black Saloon (as pictured) and a Convertible in cream. Pre-Orders are being taken now.
