2017 Morgan Plus 4
High-specification with rare extra-wide body. Just one owner and less than 14,000 miles from new.
Registration - YK66MGW
Chassis No. - SA94420K2G0004141
M.O.T. - March 2025
Odometer - 13,600
With famously long waiting lists, Morgans are real collectable cars, and this 2017 Plus 4 is a particularly desirable example. Finished in classic Royal Ivory with Imperial Red leather interior, it has not only been garaged all its life, but also kept in an air chamber – and the vendor says it has only been used on dry days, borne out by an odometer reading just 13,600 miles. It benefits from paint protection film as well. A further highlight is that it features the very rare extra-wide body. It has had just one owner since new, and comes complete with full mohair weather equipment including a screen bag, tonneau and hood cover. It also has aero racing mirrors, stainless steel door check straps, clear front indicators, luggage rack, headlamp stone guards and a bonnet strap (which is currently not fitted).
‘YK66MGW’ features a 2.0-litre Ford GDI engine that produces 154bhp. It has a five-speed manual gearbox, and things are made easier for the driver by the rare fitment of power steering. It has Performance sports seats with lumbar adjustment, and they are also heated. The walnut dashboard forms part of an interior that’s described as being in ‘excellent’ condition – indeed, the whole car is described by the vendor as being ‘excellent’. The car comes with two keys, and the vendor adds it has SSL front suspension that benefits from new chrome king pins. Naturally, it also has a full and very comprehensive service history.
The Morgan Plus 4 is a long-running model that has been produced in various periods throughout the Malvern firm’s history. The powerful two-seater first ran from 1950 right through to 1969, before being revived between 1985 to 2000. This car is a third series model, reintroduced in late 2005, powered by a Ford Duratec engine. Original models produced 145bhp but this car is a later version, producing 154bhp.
- One owner car in ‘excellent’ condition throughout
- A cosseted model that has been stored in an air chamber
- Comprehensive service history and features several desirable factory options
