So - despite comment above about no Morris in D, the details look 1968 Morris Mini Mk2 [ADO15].

The Morris grille was very specific in the Mk II Mini and doesn't seem to be this one. About the bonnet badge, both used round badges with the specific colors and crests of each marque, so it's not easy to identify what's this one.
