The Appeal
One of the more fascinating parts of the British automotive industry, Morgan are a company quite unlike any other. Their cars still carry that inimitable character of the Great British roadster in its heyday, right down to the hand-built ash frames and body panels. The Morgan Plus 8, in particular, offered a superb boon for the company during its doldrum days of the 70s and 80s, and continues to be one of the most highly prized in the company's long, unusual repertoire.
This particular example of Peter Morgan's legendary V8-powered baby comes to us in an impressive Mercedes Grey, with a whole host of heritage features that make for a highly distinguished car. The Morgan prides itself on being a tailored vehicle, with almost every element's colour and finish being customisable - so we're very pleased to see such a fine host of options.
With plenty of service history from its past five years, this much-loved Mog is ready and waiting for its lucky new owner. We've no doubt it'll turn plenty of heads in its natural habitat; winding country roads with the wind in the driver's hair. Morgan Draft-7-R5CW6359.jpg1.19 MB
