ABOUT
 PUBLISHERS NOTE
I had originally intended the title of this book to be 'Forgotten Classics' to reflect the some what neglected nature of these vehicles. Although quite apt this title was used by Ray Newell in his article  these cars in Thoroughbred & Classic Cars Magazine in February 1989. The title changed to simply 'Morris Oxford Series MO'.
Unfortunately I have had very little pre-production material to draw from, but production figures available and have been reproduced elsewhere in this book. Although it was initially intended  to cover M.O.'s throughout the world, the bulk of this book relates to Australian vehicles. However it is not through the lack of trying!
There have been numerous delays with this project and it has now been some three years was actually started. These delays have actually been beneficial because of the new information has been forthcoming. For example, in the last six months (with the help of fellow enthusiasts I have managed to trace two 1948 production Oxfords and there is possibly a third we have just become award of aware of somewhere in Queensland.

Front cover: A beautifully restored example of the MO Oxford in its final form is DAJI1 (2303H). This 1953 production vehicle was first registered on 10th July 1953 and is owned by Paul Vincent.
