Frequently I'm asked to estimate the value of a car, either by someone wanting to sell their car or a buyer interested in a particular car they have seen.  The seller usually is concerned they might undervalue their car and the buyer is usually concerned that the owner is expecting too much on sentimental grounds.

I usually base my estimates on information from "The Red Book" website which lists current market values for all cars sold in Australia and is updated on a monthly basis. www.redbook.com.au

Note that low mileage original cars and fully restored cars are worth more, but are only what someone will pay for them. Just because a model is rare does not automatically make it more valuable - often the reverse because enthusiasts of them are even rarer!

As a rough guide the following values can be expected.

Model Market Value
Morris 1100 $ 700 - $1,500
Morris 1300/1500/Nomad $ 600 - $1,400
Morris Major $ 900 - $2,100
Morris Minor 1000 $1,300 - $2,900
Morris Mini K 1100 $1,000 - $2,200
Morris Marina $ 600 - $1,400
Austin 1800 $ 800 - $1,700
Austin Kimberley X6 $ 700 - $1,900

Another reason for differing demand/popularity is the availability of parts.  In Australia, Morris 1100s and Austin 1800s share engines (and therefore many mechanical parts and expertise) with the Mini and the MGB respectively, where as Marinas and the 1500/Nomad have no counterpart with a cult following to provide demand for E-series engine parts.

A case in point:   A few years ago a Morris Nomad was advertised at a Sydney used car dealership for just under $4,000. The salesman justified the price on the basis of it being a "collector's item".
As the months ticked by the price dropped to $2,999...$1,999... $999  and it was eventually bought by an enthusiast (after 6 months) for $600. A number of people commented to me that they had inspected the car during this time but each concluded it was only worth about $1,500 and so they didn't buy it.

DEC 06 FREE: Morris 1100

I have a 1967 1100 that's been sitting in the shed for the last 10 years.
The body is in reasonable condition. Seats are falling appart. The poor old girl needs a bit of work. But she's all there!!
So if anyone wants to restore an 1100 here you go.
I'd prefer to give her to someone who is enthusiastic about 1100's than to just chuck her in for scrap.
Body No. YMGS1 63026
Engine No. 10Y/Ta/H637
Colour Sand beige

MAY06 FOR SALE: Morris 1100 Automatic

I have in my back shed a Morris 1100 automatic. The car and the shed belong to my parents and as the property is going to be sold they are interested in getting rid of the car.
Around 10 years ago the transmission started to play up, so it was driven to it's present site, about 20km, and left in the shed. Every thing else was fine at this stage.
-body is good to very good
-it was parked under cover nearly all it's life and laid up in a shed for about ten years
-interior is very good.

The main interest is to see it go to a good home.
