The Morgan Plus 8 was built from 1968 to 2004 and again in revised form between 2012 and 2018. The Plus 8 prototype was based on a modified chassis from the Plus 4, altered to accept the Rover alloy block V8. The chassis was developed in stages to accommodate gearbox changes in 1973 and 1976, and the body widened in 1976 to accommodate the widened chassis and the wings. For several years the Plus Eight was the fastest-accelerating UK production car. Following the discontinuation of the Rover V8, production of Plus 8 ended in 2004. A revised Plus 8, powered by a 4.8-litre BMW V8 engine, was introduced in 2012.
This 2001 Morgan +8 has been owned by the vendor since 2003, and has only had one previous owner. The vendor has used this car enthusiastically over the years, and had it serviced regularly. The car was fully repainted and re-trimmed inside about 3 years ago, had new front and rear Morgan shock absorbers about the same time. It is said to be in good condition, and ready for a new owner.
