The Morris Minor has, since my boyhood days, been one of my favorites. The other day I took delivery of this nice little Landsdowne having missed it all these years. As I believe John Roberts has said, the Lansdowne is the best scale model of the Morris Minor on the planet. The attention to detail, the shape, the grille are all near perfection.

Here is the Lansdowne compared to the Corgi, both are designated as 1:43. Corgi is slightly smaller than the Lansdowne but not by much

U.S. cars like the ‘58 Chevy Yeoman are huge by comparison to the Minor.

Thanks for this post, David.  As a lifelong Morris Minor driver and current owner of two,  I follow everything Morris Minors.

Those are two beauties, John. How fortunate you are to have both the convertible and the four door.
