Hi all,

I was surprised to see that this '31 MM has hydraulic brakes, my '32 (in pieces) doesn't, so either it's a conversion using parts sourced elsewhere (Morris 8?), or else Morris reverted to fitting cables for 1932 ... my guess is the former.

Anyway, a very bonny little car!

Depending on the model (OHC family 8 4 door) hydraulic brakes were fitted from late 31 early 32 but cable brakes were still used on some models into 1933. (Wikipedia)
