The Appeal

The 4/4 is the purest expression of Morgan's traditional sports car philosophy, combining a lightweight chassis with the firm's trademark responsive handling and timeless styling. Offered from 1936 to 2018, it boasts the record as the longest-running production vehicle in the world. This 1994 example is the elegant 2-seater variant, featuring the 1.8-litre DOHC 16V Ford engine and a five-speed manual gearbox.

What sets this 4/4 apart is its provenance and specification. Having been owned by just one individual since new, this car has been meticulously maintained throughout its life with 27 documented services. Ordered with an impressive array of factory options, including Connolly leather, walnut dashboard, aluminium doors and wings, and a galvanised chassis, this is a particularly well-specified example that has clearly been cherished by its sole owner.
