Thanks!  So between my wife's Morris Traveller, my bugeye and Austin, we
have a Saloon, Shooting Brake and a Roadster.  Gee, gotta find a nice Morris
"Lorry" to complete the set.

wagon and a 'Roadster' is a car that was not (originally) available with a
permanent fixed roof.  Perhaps some of our British friends can clarify?  And
how did "Lory" become "Truck"?
