This British family owned motor car company was founded by Henry Frederick Stanley Morgan in 1910. First arriving in 1936, the two-seat 4-4 was Morgan’s first model equipped with four, rather than three, wheels. The 4-4 designation referred to those special wheels and to the ‘four’ cylinder, 1122cc Coventry Climax engine that powered the sports car. After various evolutions through the decades, the mid-1990s saw the 4/4 with a galvanised chassis and powered by a 1796cc Ford Zetec engine with a five speed gearbox. The fact that the 4/4 is still in production today proves its practicality on modern roads and its enduring appeal.

This good 1995 example benefits from continuous MoT test certificates from new, confirming a genuine mileage of some 31,000 miles, with all-important full service history. This sporting car has been well maintained throughout its life, in 2014, we understand the bodywork underwent some attention, which included a full professional repaint. The paintwork is now described as remaining in very good order, we understand also the body, floors, chassis and underside are all solid. In 2024 the chassis members were cleaned and refinished with rust inhibiting paint. We understand the interior to be original and very smart, other that some entry wear to the driver’s side capping. The original hood is very good, as are the tyres (the wire wheels do have a little light corrosion so will benefit some cleaning).

Mechanically, the vendor reports no known faults; the cambelt was replaced in 2020 and the Morgan will be freshly serviced before the auction sale. The history file contains the aforementioned service records, invoices and MOT test certificates, together with the V5c registration certificate.

Note: wire road wheels will be bead blasted and powder coated in silver before the auction sale. 
Also included in the file is a book on the 4/4 by Michael Palmer and the original leather handbook wallet and handbook.
