The Morgan 4/4 was in production for an amazing eighty-three years (1936-2019), a fact that earned both manufacturer and model a place in the Guinness Book of Records. The Malvern Company’s first four-wheeled / four-cylindered design (hence the name), it stayed true to the same tried and tested formula for generations. Unveiled in 1993, the Morgan 4/4 1800 was faster, cleaner and more frugal than many of its predecessors. Based around a box-section ladder-frame chassis equipped with independent 'sliding pillar' front suspension, a leaf-sprung 'live' rear axle and disc / drum hydraulic brakes, the aluminium over ash construction of its bodywork contributed towards a commendably low kerb weight (circa 868kg). Embracing the marque tradition of using proprietary running gear, the newcomer was powered by a Ford-sourced 1796cc four-cylinder ‘Zetec’ engine (complete with fuel-injection and double-overhead camshafts) allied to five-speed manual transmission. Impractical yet beguiling, the 4/4 1800 sported a basic interior, minimal luggage space and potentially argumentative hood offset by a singularly involving driving experience and vivid acceleration.

Ordered through Wykehams Ltd of London in late November 1995 but not delivered until April 1997, ‘P982 WGH’ was specified with a galvanised chassis, Indigo Blue paintwork, Black upholstery, badge bar, map reading light, rustproofing and luggage rack. Serviced at 1,475, 5,936, 12,672, 18,271, 22,490, 23,621, 25,152 and 26,127 miles, the 26,700 currently shown by the odometer is warranted to represent the total covered from new. Dry stored from December 2002 – February 2014 and again between December 2015 – January 2021, the two-seater is summed up by the seller as ‘a nice, clean, low mileage example’. Despatched to Bell & Colvill in March 2021, a month before it was acquired by its current (third) registered keeper, this appealing 4/4 is offered for sale with V5C Registration Document, stamped service book, sundry paperwork and fresh MOT certificate.
