Morris (started by William Morris - Viscount Nuffield) was an extremely successful firm during the late 1930s. Its well-liked products included the affordable Morris Eight (unusually for a small car of the time, featuring hydraulic brakes), plus the mid sized Ten and Twelve, also the much larger but similarly styled Fourteen, Sixteen and Eighteen. The War temporarily finished car building for public consumption, but when hostilities ceased Morris very soon established production again, and like Austin initially built cars based on pre-War variants to satifsy demand as the UK tried to return to normal.
