1996 Morgan 4/4

Description

From a deceased estate; only 3,613 miles from new in the hands of one owner; MOG number plate; wonderful condition

First registered in January 1996, this Morgan 4/4 has covered only 3,613 miles from new in the hands of one owner. The V5C records two former keepers but this is because the first was the supplying dealer and the car was put into the widow’s name when her husband, who had owned the car from new, passed away in 2020. Since then it has only covered 60 miles going to and from the MOT station each year.

Finished in Connaught Green, it is fitted with the Ford 1.8 Zetec 16v engine and 5-speed gearbox which makes it good for 0-60mph in 7.8 seconds with a top speed of 110mph.

While the service section of the handbook has not been stamped, it comes with six old MOTs from 2018 – 2023 and an online check shows that it was also tested every year from 2005 onwards which supports the mileage. The current MOT is valid until December 2025 with just one advisory (‘n/s/r axle oil seal leaking’).

All the MOTs were carried out at the same garage in Witney who also fitted new centre and rear exhaust silencers in December 2023 because lack of use had caused them to corrode. The brakes were also serviced at the same time with a new n/s/r brake cylinder and fresh brake fluid and a new battery was fitted.

This Morgan is in exceptionally good condition for its year, both above and below, as you might expect for such a low-mileage example. The chrome wire wheels are gleaming and are shod with a matching set of Avon tyres. It has been starting promptly and running beautifully as we have moved it around on site.

The icing on the cake is the appropriate MOG number plate which is transferable and comes with the car. What a beauty!
