1976 MORGAN PLUS 8 - 2,300 MILES AND ONE OWNER FROM NEW

3528cc V8, 4spd manual. This remarkable Morgan Plus 8 has been registered to one owner for its entire life, covering only 2289 miles from new. Finished in gold with a black interior, the car is beautifully preserved, complete with its original upholstery, alloy wheels, window tops and Lucas lamps. A gentle patina creeping into its brightwork and a few areas of ageing paint, but eliminating these traces of history might be considered a shame. The vendor tells us her father bought the car new, and her mother chose the colour. It has been kept in a garage all its life. 

The car sits on a matching set of relatively modern Pirelli tyres, but there is no record of any recent MoT and we have not attempted to run it. It's supplied with its original handbook, and previous and current versions of the V5C, showing registration at the same Crawley address since its first registration 50 years ago, in March 1976.
