context_page_description: The Morris Eight is a small family car produced by Morris Motors from 1935 to 1948. It was inspired by the sales popularity of the Ford Model Y, styling of which the Eight closely followed. The success of the car enabled Morris to regain its position as Britain's largest motor manufacturer.
context_section_description: A van version of the Series E, rated at 5 cwt capacity and designated as the Series Z, was produced from 1940 to 1953.  While having the external appearance similar to the Series E, mechanically the vans were more akin to the Series II, still having a three-speed gearbox. More than 51,000 examples were built.
  A coupé utility variant of the Series Z was produced in Australia, utilising imported chassis and engines with locally built bodies.
