Vehicle Description
Owning a Morgan is all about enjoying fine craftsmanship built in
the traditional way. It makes for exceptional cars with
discriminating rarity. And there have been the correct major
investments in this 1961 Morgan Plus 4 Roadster to keep it a true
solid driver's classic. So if you have a favorite road, this Morgan
should be the best way to celebrate it.
Morgans have a timeless sense of style. With the sweeping fenders,
pontoon headlights, rear-mounted spare tire, and ash wood frame -
it is often hard to tell the difference between a Plus 4 roadster
built today and one that's over a half-century old. Of course, a
timeless appearance is also aided by the right investments. The
classic hand-formed steel body is complemented by an updated
application of champagne paint. So you get a timelessly attractive
color that also has a beautiful glow to let the sunshine show off
all the car's curves. And all the details from the removable
windshield to the wire wheels with genuine knock-off hubs deliver
the feeling of a true classic European sports car.
There is a nice black roof for when you want to get the sunshine
off your shoulders, but really, a roadster like this was meant to
be open to the world. After all, the full burgundy interior looks
elegant against the exterior champagne. And you can tell they made
some solid investments here with the more modern bucket seats with
textured inserts and proper shoulder seatbelts. But these upgrades
don't take away from the old-world feeling that makes a Morgan
terrific. You sit behind a proper Bluemel Brooklands steering wheel
and look out over a dash made of real wood. You get a full set of
Smiths gauges and the shifter is in that perfect British position
that feels like it's an extension of your right arm.
Under the hood (bonnet) is a 1991cc motor borrowed from the Triumph
TR3. This engine is known for its legendary pep, especially with
the twin SU carburetors attached. Best of all, the more
mass-produced motor means maintenance is easy on your rare bespoke
Morgan. The driving experience is maximized as you row through the
gears of the four-speed transmission and get the most out of this
four-cylinder. There are even nice driver's features like modern
Kumho tires and front disc brakes. Your senses will go into
overload as the wind whips through the interior, and you help
create the wonderful soundtrack from the motor. It gives you an
instant connection to this classic machine that makes Morgans one
of the most enthusiast-driven brands out there.
Rare, beautiful, and always a class act - a Morgan provides true
motoring pleasure. Call today!!!
