Probably one of the most desirable 4-cylinder Morgans ever built. Finished in one of the best colours this SUPER SPORT looks and drives so well. The noise from the factory fitted throttle bodies will have any enthusiast grinning from ear to ear. Only 60 of these special plus 4's were built and this one carries the 55 Number proudly on the dashboard and the bespoke steering wheel. This car has full-service history 4 Brand new tyres, and has only covered 18, 000 miles since 2012. To further enhance this spirited sports car the previous owner has made the significant investment of having the well know and renowned SSL front and rear 5 link rear suspension. In doing so removing the unwieldy leaf springs for a far more poised and comfortable ride.
At the 1950 Earl’s Court Motor Show Morgan introduced the 2088cc Plus4car to the world. This highly capable machine became the platform for annual innovative performance upgrades within the company. The perfect balance between engine size and weight was the catalyst for the birth of the Plus 4 Super Sports race ready car. This car introduced the infamous low-line aluminium body and a highly tuned mechanical specification taking Morgan to victory in their class at the 1962 Le Mans24 hour race. Thisground breaking success encouraged Peter Morgan to introduce many permanent additions to the Plus 4 which has continued to evolve to this day. To celebrate this during the sixth decade of the Plus 4, Morgan Motor Company in collaboration with Aero Racing Ltd. proudly introduced the limited edition Plus 4 Super Sports. Like it’s sixty year old predecessor, the 2011 Plus 4 Super Sports featured a carefully considered specification including an array of performance upgrades, track inspired accessories and fashionable sixties themed aesthetics. This truly versatile car contains all the reliability of the modern Morgan but with a large injection of legendary sixties racing spirit.
