2001 Morgan Plus 8 V8

Stratton Motor Company are pleased to be able to offer this very rare and very low-mileage 2001 Morgan Plus 8 V8 finished in Royal Ivory.

It has been kept in our storage facility for over 36 months and due to circumstances our client has decided it is time to find this Morgan a new home.

Only two owners from new with just 6626 miles on the clock and in amazing condition, commensurate with its very low mileage and ownership history.

The Royal Ivory paintwork is complemented by the Connolly red leather Interior with stone piping, Walnut Burr Dashboard, Deep Rim Chrome Wire Wheels, Luggage Rack, Badge Bars and Tonneau Cover, electrically heated windscreen. The file includes a Morgan provenance and specification certificate.

Power comes from the very smooth 4.0 litre Rover V8 engine developing 204bhp through a five-speed gearbox and attaining a 0-60mph of just 6.8 seconds.

Being the later ‘long door’ model of Morgan cars makes it easier to get into and out of, rather than earlier ‘short door’ cars.  Also, the 4.0 litre V8 with such low mileage makes this is a rare find and certainly one for the Morgan enthusiast.

The car was originally supplied by well-known Morgan dealers, Williams of Bristol on 1st April 2001 and in 2004 went to Harpers Morgan Specialists for servicing up until 2010 when it had just 5020 miles recorded. In 2018 it came to us as part exchange for an Aston Martin and was then sold to the current keeper. Since that time it has been mainly dry stored and covered just 215 miles!
