The Minor 1000 gained an even larger engine, 1098 cc (67 in³, in 1962. It could now reach 77 mph (124 km/h), yet fuel economy was down to 38 mpg (6.2 L/100 km). Other modifications included a new dashboard layout (a lidded glove box on the passenger side, an open cubby hole in front of the driver), a different heater, plus new, larger tail/flasher and front side/flasher lamps.

Van versions were popular with the British Post Office, and some of these had front wings made of rubber, in order to cope with the sometimes unforgiving busy situations in which they were expected to work.

During the life of the Minor 1000 model, production declined. The last Convertible/Tourer was manufactured on 18 August 1969, and the saloon line was discontinued the next year. 1971 was the last year for the Traveller and commercial versions. Nearly 850,000 Minor 1000s were made in all. The Minor 1000 cars was officially replaced by the Morris Marina, which replaced it on the Cowley production lines. For the management of what had, by 1971, mutated into the British Leyland Motor Corporation, the Morris Marina was seen primarily as a "cheap to build" competitor to Ford's top selling (and in many respects conservatively engineered) Cortina, rather than as a replacement for the (in its day) strikingly innovative Morris Minor.

    If you have a car and you want to sell to it, then defiantly you search for dealers in you local area which have the slogan that "we buy any car". But, you will notice that the price at which they buy it from you is not a satisfactory one. So, if you want to sell it at good price then do a search over internet and try to find out their competitors also.
