1933 Morris Cowley Four – the last model to carry the Cowley name, other than a post war light commercial. Announced in August 1933 for the 1934 season the Cowley Four was a completely re-designed car with a lower body, a new 11.9HP (1588cc) engine, four speed gearbox with synchromesh on third and top and Lockheed hydraulic brakes on all four wheels. It was well equipped with leather seats, a Pytchley sliding roof, opening windscreen, luggage carrier and floor mounted battery cut out. This is actually rather a rare car as of the 6,600 produced a mere 12 are known to the Morris Register today. From late 1934 the Cowley name was dropped and the model re-named Morris Twelve. This cherished example has been in the same ownership for the last thirty five years and used extensively both here and on holidays abroad. The car generally presents well save for some micro blistering on the top of the bonnet and some paint flaking at the bottom of two of the doors. The interior is original apart from the front seat backs which have been recently re-upholstered. However, the original leather comes with the car and in our opinion could be reinstated. The head lining and carpets are in good order and the Pytchley sliding roof opens fully. The carburettor has just been rebuilt so the engine starts instantly and settles to a very quiet idle showing good oil pressure. Our test drive showed the car to be in good driving order with clutch, gearbox and brakes all working correctly. The Morris comes with a V5C, an original handbook, a luggage trunk, some trimming items, a small quantity of useful spares and the original supplier’s plate from Stewart & Arden. A rare survivor and an accessible entry point into pre war motoring with room for the family.
