970 Morgan Plus 8 - Unrestored - Only 7,137 km (4,435 miles)
A remarkable opportunity to acquire an exceptionally low-mileage example of one of Britain's most charismatic sports cars: the 1970 Morgan Plus 8.
Presented in unrestored condition and showing an extraordinary 7,137 km (4,435 miles), this Plus 8 offers the kind of originality that is increasingly difficult to find more than half a century after it left the Morgan factory.
Introduced in 1968, the Plus 8 transformed Morgan's traditional lightweight roadster by pairing its classic hand-built construction with the formidable Rover 3.5-litre V8. The combination delivered effortless torque, a stirring V8 soundtrack and impressive performance in a wonderfully compact package. It quickly established the Plus 8 as one of the defining British performance cars of its era.
Finished in British Racing Green with a contrasting black interior and black weather equipment, this 1970 example possesses all the unmistakable details that make an early Morgan so appealing: flowing cycle-style fenders, upright chrome grille, twin auxiliary lamps, exposed bonnet straps, wire-style alloy wheels and Morgan's beautifully purposeful open-cockpit proportions.
What truly distinguishes this car, however, is its preservation. Rather than having undergone a comprehensive restoration, it remains unrestored, allowing its authentic character and history to remain intact. Combined with its exceptionally low indicated mileage of just 7,137 km (4,435 miles), it represents a particularly intriguing example for the collector who values originality.
With its lightweight construction, unmistakable styling and V8 power, the early Plus 8 delivers an experience unlike almost anything else from the period-raw and mechanical, yet elegant and unmistakably British.
