## Description

Overview **Overall Comments** A true British muscle car, there is nothing quite like a Roadster! The driving experience is an involving one and as such, demands attention, focus and skill to get the best from it, but it is unreservedly rewarding as a result. We are offering this vehicle on behalf of a well-regarded Morgan specialist dealership based in Exmouth, Devon, who have provided new and used Morgans to the Channel Islands for some years and with whom we have enjoyed a close working relationship. The car is available for viewing in Devon, not far from Exeter airport, from where collection and drop-off can be arranged if desired. We can also assist with shipping, importation and registration processes if required. **Body** Traditional looking in its gloss Sport Black paintwork, the Roadster has optional 16” chrome wire wheels and overriders fitted front and rear. A 2-tier luggage rack is also fitted, above the spare wheel. The car has a colour-matched Burgundy hood, together with a tonneau cover and bag for the side screens. **Mechanical** This model Roadster has noticeably more power – a claimed 280 bhp – and performance than its forebears, having a potential 140 mph top speed and 0-60 mph acceleration in around 5.5. seconds. It has a 6-speed Ford gearbox and power steering, but no other modern driving aids such as traction control, providing a direct connection to the road. **Interior** The Burgundy leather interior with black carpeting is in excellent condition, as is the walnut dashboard and leather-rimmed Moto Lita steering wheel. The doors are fitted with storage pockets and have checks fitted to hold them when open. Asking Price £ 43,999

History The Morgan Motor Company was founded in 1910 with the specific aim of building three-wheeled “cycle cars”. With a front-mounted engine powering the single rear wheel, they quickly became known for manufacturing well-designed and well-built vehicles, proving very capable in the racing world. Morgan's first four-wheeler – the 4/4 - was released to the public in 1936, following the same build principles as their 3-wheeled models (which were phased out in 1952). The Morgan Plus 4 was then introduced (in 1950) with a larger engine to provide more performance. This theme continued with the introduction of the Plus 8 in 1968, which made use of the Rover V8 engine. The turn of the century saw the development of new models – all still being handbuilt in traditional Morgan fashion - such as the Roadster and Aero 8, a revised Plus 4 and even a new Morgan 3-wheeler. The Roadster model first appeared in 2004, replacing the outgoing Plus 8. Retaining the traditional Morgan chassis, instead of the Rover-derived V8 engine it made use of a Ford V6 - initially from the Mondeo. In 2011, this was supplanted with a more powerful US Ford 3.7 litre Duratec Cyclone engine – as found in the Ford Mustang. This example was first registered in April 2016 and has a good service history together with supporting receipts.
