2000 Morgan Plus 8


Specifications


Description

 

The Morgan Plus 8 is a legendary British roadster that blends timeless design with raw, unfiltered V8 performance and this 2000 model sits proudly at the end of the classic Morgan era, just before the modern Aero models arrived.

It’s a rare opportunity to own one of the last of its kind, offering vintage character with real-world performance.

ABOUT THIS CAR

  • This is a car where performance meets personality - With around 190 hp and 312 Nm of torque in a car weighing under 1,000 kg, the Plus 8 is no slouch. 0–100 km/h comes up in around 5.6 seconds, and the V8 soundtrack adds to the raw, analog joy of driving. There are no driver aids. Just you, the road, and a car that communicates everything. This is driving at its most elemental: connected, involving, and emotional.
  • This looks like a car that’s been cared for properly, with the occasional use and one that has always been stored with care - well maintained and ready to enjoy.
  • For those who may not be too familiar with Morgans, the Plus 8 isn’t a modern car dressed in vintage clothing. It’s the real thing. That means a visceral, engaging drive with a classic long-bonnet, short-tail styling and a truly analogue experience i.e.: no traction control, no gimmicks. These cars command a unique presence wherever they go. It also means its noisy, bumpy, raw…just how a real driver’s car should be. Comes with limited creature comforts (but plenty of character) and we can guarantee that you'll get waves, chats, and thumbs-up wherever you go. This car is not for someone looking for a soft, quiet, daily cruiser. It’s for an enthusiast or collector who appreciates heritage, craftsmanship, and the thrill of a powerful engine in a hand-built, lightweight chassis. Whether it’s for occasional weekend drives, classic events, or just to own a piece of British motoring history, this Plus 8 delivers an experience that’s becoming increasingly rare in today’s world.

Being in a car like this you really feel connected to the road. It’s loud, exposed, and very analog that is no driver aids, no insulation from elements; it gives you exactly what it is. If you love pure driving with minimal interference, this is a big plus.

The 2000 Morgan Plus 8 is a car for character more than convenience. It’s not perfect, and it doesn’t try to be. But for the right person, someone who loves vintage emotion, open‑air driving, thunderous V8 growl, and the unique presence of something handmade, it can be magical. If you buy one in good condition, like this one, then New Zealand offers plenty of support for Morgans and we guarantee that you’ll get something rare that gives more than just transport but a proper connection to motoring’s past.
