This stunning UK Morgan +8 has covered a mere 26k warranted miles from new all fully backed up with an impressive documented history file. The service history is very comprehensive with every MOT back to the first on 16th February 1994 when it had covered only 3992 miles. Servicing has mainly been done by Official Morgan Dealers throughout the UK all with invoices and work sheets to prove totalling in excess of £12,000. Supplied with the original owner's handbook with stamped service history and 2 sets of keys. A full bumper to bumper major service will be completed up on sale.
Only ever having 6 previous owners of which 2 were husband and wife this stunning +8 is not to be missed.

A truly exceptional preserved example with all original features it cannot fail to impress.

Quote from Classic & Sports Car Feb 2020... Always sought-after for their uncompromised sports-car image plus effective retro styling and construction, Morgans are wrapped up in a legend that keeps them in an economic bubble. Depreciation is virtually unknown, demand is always high and values are remarkably stable and predictable. As one of the most desirable models that sold steadily for 35 years, the Plus 8 certainly has to be one of the safest investments in the classic car park right now.
The Morgan Plus 8 built from 1968 to 2004 and again in revised form between 2012 and 2018. Its instant and enduring popularity has been credited with saving the company and keeping the company famous during the 36 years of its manufacture.
