I just purchased a 1993 Plus 8. Since 50 years i dreamed of owning one. Two weeks ago my dream came true. I owned a lot more powerful cars, but they always invited me to drive fast, but now i needed a car who is of a special pure design and pure driving. I hope i will be as happy, as you are with your red one.

Beautiful Morgan ❤

A thing of beauty is a joy forever. For me this encapsulates Morgans perfectly.

cracking video of my favourite car ,bravo

Fantastic video!! Very thorough in detail. An absolutely beautiful example of a +8. Mine looked identical (back in '83). The only car that thrills me!!

Great video. I have owned o e of the 4.6L cars a few years, and they are great fun. And reliable.❤

Thank you for the Morgan color code 81, I found the BASF cross reference and looks good.

Lovely reportage, full of passion & knowing. The V8 Rover sound engine is amazing, so different from my GDI Ford 4 cyl in my Plus 4 2017😍

This is a very nice Morgan! I used mine as an every day car for 15 years, even driving to Spain on a number of holidays, but as mine was a 1976 1600 Ford engined one it was a bit underpowered for such journeys, but driving a car every day really lets you get to know the quirks, I really enjoyed every minute of driving it, I hope you have many more miles of enjoyment from this wonderful car!

Such a beautiful car

I so much like your car. Having a +8 from 1997 - having the same alloy rims as yours - I do have so much fun with the car. So keep yours in the state it is. So will I with mine...

I live a 1 minute walk from the factory and my dream is to own one of these. I doubt I'll ever be able to afford it but I love looking at them drive around the town!

Awesome

Like the no plate...What's up doc...?

Enjoyed your video very much very informative although I am not lucky enough yo have a plus 8 I do have a wee 1994 4/4 in Connaught Green which I enjoy owning. Couldn't agree with you more about the pleasure I get in just looking at my car never mind driving it although I also have a 1953 MG TD which I must admit is quite a bit more comfortable. Always a dream to have one and it's def a keeper.

You have one of the best, classic colours in Connaught Green. The 4/4 is arguably a little more nimble than a Plus 8 too, due to lighter kerb weight, and a slightly narrower body. I've owned three MGs, and all rode better, and were much more comfortable than the Morgan. The Morgan is probably the least comfortable car I've ever owned......but that's also the point of it too.

Very nice presentation. I like the paint, looks like a mild red. What is the color name and paint code. I am getting ready to paint my plus 4 . Thank you.

The colour is Corsa Red, which is a standard colour from the 1990s. I think the code is #590102, but you might want to check the code with a Morgan dealer. Hope this helps

Magnificent video! Just wondering what camera and lens were utilized? Thanks.....

Thanks for the kind words. Video was on an iPhone 13 Pro Max, using a £25 wireless mic from Amazon. My son was doing the filming! So no real tech!

Enjoyed your video, well done. Been a Plus 8 fan since I was a teenage, now I am a retired old man in Florida and thinking about a Plus 8 again, prices right now are quite high, any advice?

Morgan prices tend to stay pretty solid, so whatever you have to pay, you're unlikely to lose. I'd try and find a US based dealer, or it may be worth speaking to Melvyn Rutter, here in the UK, as he deals internationally, so can probably give advice on some suitable specialists in the US. Their number is +44 1279 725725. Good luck!

A great car. I would love one. However it would be good if someone did a video on what to look out for when buying a second hand Morgan.

Rust, and the condition of the ash frame are paramount. Most engine/gearbox issues will be straightforward, and not too expensive to fix.

This is a car like no other. Everyone will turn their head, look at it, like it, and want to talk to you. Police too! They will forget why they stopped you - and give you a pass. No one will scratch it because it of it's vintage looks. You will sell it for the same (if not more) than you paid for it - that's been the norm since the seventies. It's an easy car to repair, cheap to run, and fun to drive. Glues to the road. Disadvantages are; hard ride, not practical, side-curtains can get sucked outwards an inch at speed letting rain in on you if it's wet, visibility isn't great with the hood up, but if you have a another car, you can choose. You won't regret it and you don't have to be rich to own and enjoy one. It's as basic as you get. Follow the advice of the man in this video and you'll be right!

Hi. Would you mind confirming which librands exhaust option you chose? Do you find it at all ‘boomy’ when cruising say 50/60 mph? Many thanks.

@Muchado856

The one on this car has custom manifolds, so it's not an 'off the shelf' Librands. It's not 'boomy' at all though. I did have an MGB with a 'cherry bomb' exhaust, and that was too boomy at speed. You should be fine with a standard Librands setup.

Nice car. Aren’t you tempted to remove all the glittery clutter - the scaffolding on the tail, the aerial, the English flags, the mirrors, the wind deflectors, the bumpers - and leave the lovely lines cleaner and prettier?

The car pretty much came like that, but it’s not that easy to remove everything, as I’ll be left with brackets and holes that need filling.

Would look great with wire wheels

Under sealed and not used in the wet sounds just like me😂
