Morgan +8, 4.6l 1997 for sale

1997 MORGAN +8 4.6L - One owner, 60,000 km certified, fully aluminum An authentic icon of British motoring, this 1997 Morgan +8 4.6L represents one of the most sought-after and high-performing versions ever produced by the historic Malvern company. Registered on October 13, 1997 in the name of the only owner, this car comes with a complete history that attests to its extraordinary originality and actual mileage: 60,000 km driven with great care. Main features: Chassis: 4R11747 Engine: Rover V8 - S46D00772A Displacement: 4,555 cc Rear-wheel drive – 5-speed manual transmission The 4.6-liter Rover V8 engine – one of the last before the gradual electrification of the Morgan range – guarantees a unique driving experience, powerful yet refined, thanks to numerous mechanical improvements: Special camshafts Sport exhausts High-performance aluminum radiator Manual cooling fan Reinforced shock absorbers Updated brake distribution Aesthetics and customization: This Morgan was ordered with a completely bespoke configuration, starting from the aluminum body painted in the refined “Ice Blue Jaguar,” a non-standard catalog color, and completed with an elegant handcrafted red leather interior. The hood is made of fine Mohair Blue, along with a second set of hoods and gray vinyl side windows, for a total of double complete equipment. Original equipment and accessories: Moto-Lita wooden and aluminum steering wheel Polished stainless steel luggage rack Original Morgan chrome spoke wheels Tonneau cover Additional headlights Center armrest storage compartment Glove box with wooden door Additional 4-point seat belts Vintage-style Kenwood radio Rarity and historical value: In 1997, Morgan produced very few examples with the 4.6L engine, reserved for selected customers and enthusiasts. This specimen stands out not only for the engine but for being one of the rarest with European specifications and full-optional configuration, maintained by a single owner from new and never restored, as it has always been kept in excellent condition. The car has recently undergone a complete maintenance intervention, which included the replacement of all oils, hoses, injector revision, and spark plug replacement. It is therefore ready to be used immediately, without the need for further expenses. An unrepeatable opportunity for collectors and connoisseurs of the Morgan brand.
