DESCRIPTION

Two owners and just under 14,000 miles...The Morgan 4/4 was the Morgan Motor Company's first car with four wheels and appeared in 1936. Its model designation ""4-4"" (later ""4/4"") stood for four wheels and four cylinders. Earlier Morgans had been three-wheelers, only, typically with V-twin engines. Apart from a break during World War II (and the period March 1951 to September 1955) the 4/4 has been in continuous production from its debut right up to the present day. Engine capacity has increased from the 1,122 cc Coventry Climax engine in 1936 to a 1.8-litre Ford engine in 2004 ( with a 997cc Kent engine between 1960 and 1961), although it is currently back down to 1,595 cc.

This delightful, two owner car has the added benefit of two rear seats, two tonneau covers and the (obligatory) wet-weather pack that includes sides windows and the hood. Dry stored since its purchase in 1995 by our vendor from its first lady owner, the car is never used in winter. If you are in the market for a Morgan the chances are you will know a fair bit about them and this cracking Dark Green 4/4, with an MoT until June 2016, awaits your inspection.
