EXTERIOR
Finished in traditional Morgan Connaught Green this hand-built British sports car has a unique character that conjures up bygone days. A fabulous deep shine which has a wonderful reflection and deep gloss finish. Striking at any angle this example has led a pampered garaged life with only one touched in chip barely visible. The long louvred bonnet and distinctive cowled radiator grille reflect the cars unique ancestry. All correct badging is intact and the optional silver mesh grille and badge bar have a mirror finish. The expensive optional full width bumpers are perfect as is the luggage rack. The matching green all-weather equipment including the storm cover, tonneau cover, hood and side curtains are as new and beautifully trimmed. Skilled traditional coachbuilding at its best.
INTERIOR
Once in the cockpit the driver is treated to an overwhelming sense of involvement only possible in a traditionally hand-built Morgan. The tan leather with optional green coloured piping is simply divine and offers a soft luxurious feel. Optional green carpeting finished with tan piping complements the interior and shows no wear protected by factory rubber mats. The optional walnut dashboard and expensive Moto-Lita steering wheel will please those seeking the full experience. Clear instrumentation allows the driver to enjoy the drive and soak in the atmosphere. All switch gear and features such as the quick clear front screen operate perfectly. Wonderful.
ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
Being a 2000 model this Morgan is fitted with the well proven Ford MVH EFI engine. Producing 110bhp at 5800prm the car feels spirited with a throaty exhaust rasp. Regular Morgan servicing, very low miles will ensure the new owner can simply drive and enjoy. The engine compartment is spotlessly clean. The 5-speed gearbox with a single dry plate clutch is light and progressive.
WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
Spotless optional centre lock chrome wire wheels with rudge hubs are perfect and look stunning. Shod in Continental Contact 165/80 tyres combined with AP Lockheed four pot callipers hydraulic disc brakes up front and drums at the rear ensure safe predictable handling.
HISTORY FILE
Supplied new in May 2000 by Morgan UK Dealer Thomson & Potter Ltd after the famous waiting time this Morgan has only covered 7,392 miles. Despite this incredibly low mileage the vehicle returned to the same dealer no less than eight times for routine servicing! A file complete with invoices and old MOT certificates verify the very low mileage while enthusiast owned throughout. Perfectionists will marvel in the unrepeatable detail such as the spare keys fastened still by the Morgan Motor Co. Ltd tag and the unused Morgan picnic blanket and umbrella. Probably the best used Morgan 4/4 available.
Private registration ‘M44FJN’ remains with the car.
