ADO17 is the model code used by BMC for a range of large family cars manufactured from September 1964 to 1975. The car was initially sold as the Austin 1800, the Morris 1800,and as the Wolseley 18/85.
In 1968, a Mark II version was launched, this featured a cheaper and more conventional interior, revised front grilles and other trim, and for the Austin and Morris models the slim, horizontal rear lights were replaced by vertical "fin" lights which gave a family look along with the smaller ADO16 range.
BNP has only had three owners, Lewis Wetherill in 1980, followed by our vendors mother in 1983. It was laid up in a barn some 30 years ago with the mileage at some 86,000 miles and recently extracted. The suspension needed a bit of a pump up and the engine is not seized but no attempt has been made to start her up.
Sold with the V5C and two keys.
