1948 Morris 8. Beautiful For Sale

For sale my Morris 8E series, the forerunner to the Minor. I'd always hesitate to call any car concourse but this is as near as you will get.
It wants for nothing and is in superb order outside, inside and underneath. Even the grease nipples have clean yellow plastic covers on them! The black paintwork has a fantastic gloss - see photo of me taking a photo.
She comes with all log books including the original buff one and 5 full files of bills, awards, wokshop manuals, publications and every mot and tax disc from 1981. It was even road tested in a classic car magazine in 1992 and it looks exactly the same.
Number plate valued at £3K but would be a shame to split.
She drives beautifully 918 cc engine and cruises happily 45-50 mph. Oil pressure is excellent. 4 speed gearbox is as it should be. She's obviously had a very cosseted life with only 6 owners in 70 years, the first one for over 20 years.
Tyres are good, new battery recently fitted. She's even got a working blind in the rear window. Lovely.
Many more pictures available.
You'll not find better.

Nice all round car, drives well MOT exempt although it is currently MOT'd to September 2024. Use as is and improve as you go. It’s not a show car, which is reflected in the price, but if you are looking for a cheap entry into the classic car scene, or just a classic car to enjoy at weekends then it could be the car ...

I lavished a huge amount of money having the car transformed from, what was pretty much a shell, to this stunning vehicle that you see now. I bought this vehicle noticing that it had never ever been painted. I had most panels replaced, either British ...
