Morris has announced a new van that will be out 2020, its a 1940 looks bus but it's electric.
So morris minors will be back on the roads soon...
I would doubt if that makes production, certainlynin the form that it is in there. There are many large companies working on electric versions of thier Van's, but nobody wants to be first to launch for the single reason that if you're first, then someone else launches and it's even slightly better, your sales stop overnight.

In addition to this, they made SO MANY morris minors that they will never be worth mega bucks. Prices will rise, but not to the level of some classics. Having said that, some of the rarer good quality Minis are in the stratosphere, and 2cvs are rising in value too...

...and having one of their sport car isn't a bad idea because it's a well respected name in England and they are known to be unbreakable that's why I want one in my collection and soon they will be going up in value
It's not a morris sports car though is it? It's a kit car that used some morris parts. Parts that were used in many BL/BMC cars of that era.

Also, I'm not sure they ever were really that well respected. They made fine and competitive cheap family cars in thier day, but they never had the luxury or refinement of a rover, a triumph or a jaguar. They were not an aspirational car. I'd wager you'd get better returns for your investment if you found a tidy, original morris, rather than one of these kits.
