2008 MORGAN 4/4

Pavilion Gardens | Buxton, Derbyshire 22000 - 26000 Registration No: PL09 HLY Chassis No: SA944160024L01014 MOT: June 2025 � Just 17,000 miles from new � In current ownership (previous Centre Secretary of the Morgan Sports Car Club) since 2012 � Said by the vendor to be in almost concours condition � Superbly maintained by a fastidious owner The Morgan 4/4 was in production for an amazing eighty-three years (1936-2019), a fact that earned both manufacturer and model a place in the Guinness Book of Records. The Malvern Company�s first four-wheeled / four-cylindered design (hence the name), it stayed true to the same tried and tested formula for generations. Unveiled in 1993, the �latest� Morgan 4/4 1800 was faster, cleaner and more frugal than many of its predecessors. Based around a box-section ladder-frame chassis equipped with independent 'sliding pillar' front suspension, a leaf-sprung 'live' rear axle and disc / drum hydraulic brakes, the aluminium over ash construction of its bodywork contributed towards a commendably low kerb weight (circa 868kg). Embracing the marque tradition of using proprietary running gear, the newcomer was powered by a Ford-sourced four-cylinder �Zetec� engine (complete with fuel-injection and double-overhead camshafts) allied to five-speed manual transmission. Impractical yet beguiling, the 4/4 sported a basic interior, minimal luggage space and potentially argumentative hood offset by a singularly involving driving experience and vivid acceleration. Manufactured in 2009, the Morgan 4/4 offered was registered new on the 1st of March that year. Fitted with the Ford 1600cc four-cylinder Sigma Zetec SE engine producing 115bhp with cold air intake kit, the Morgan is finished in Le Mans Green with the interior featuring complementary Beige leather upholstery with walnut dashboard, matching Motolita steering wheel, and heated windscreen completing the interior. The Morgan has an interior matching Beige 'easy-up' hood, as well as a tonneau cover, and sidescreens with bag. Further featuring a stainless-steel roll bar, luggage rack, and wire wheels, the wheels have recently been shod with new tyres and tubes. In current ownership for thirteen years, the vendor is an avid enthusiast and retired engineer, as well as a previous Centre Secretary of the Morgan Sports Car Club. Maintained fastidiously regardless of cost as a retirement hobby by the vendor and fully documented including annual servicing, the Morgan has benefitted from undersealing with stoneguard, and the aluminium wings and any vulnerable body areas sealed with stoneguard film too, and the galvanised chassis fully Waxoyled. A new aluminium radiator and silicon hoses have been provided, along with Suplex front suspension and Bilstein dampers all round, a Sports exhaust (original silencer accompanying), and both trickle charger and satnav plugs fitted, as well as a new timing belt at 12,000 miles. Offered now with just 17,000 miles from new and only two former keepers, the Morgan is said by the vendor to be in almost concours condition, with no corrosion anywhere. Only used for summer events and Morgan Club summer excursions, the 4/4 has reputedly never been out in winter, with the vendor rating �PL09 HLY� as �excellent� throughout (engine, gearbox, bodywork, paintwork, interior, and electrics).
