Introduction

The Morris Eight is a delightful piece of automotive history, brought to life by its simple yet elegant design.
The Morris Eight is a family saloon car designed and built by Morris Motors between the years of 1935-1948 and is an iconic pre-war design based on the Ford Model Y. In 1938 the vehicle was subject to a number of revisions thumbed the “Series E” which introduced a new waterfall style front grill and headlights mounted in the wings, as well as a slightly wider and shorter wheelbase and a revised engine capable of making 29hp.
This particular example comes to us form current owner Jane, who purchased the car in 2016 and has enjoyed her last 6 years of ownership. The odometer currently reads ~55,200 miles however the mileage cannot be verified as the odometer isn't working. Finished in black and red paintwork, with hand painted wheels, this example has a lot of character and is in a good overall condition.
This auction listing was written from information supplied by Matt after meeting Jane the owner, and having visited and photographed the vehicle.
