If anyone is interested I see this is listed on eBay. Certainly ties in with the information that I have that this is indeed the 'Prototype' car but appears to be finished off to match the production cars. Link to eBay - Le Mans 62 Car 00

This car indeed is the prototype Le Mans 62, which appeared in many publications and also in the Factory brochure. You can see a picture of it on my site http://morganhistoryinfo.services.officelive.com in the page for +8 Specials, taken on the day it was introduced to the Morgan dealers.

I would say it could be in the region of £33 - £36k, but I wouldn't bid that much without an inspection first.
Is it me or does it have a door handle on the drivers side and not on the passengers???

Mog prices are going up! Having expressed an interest in acquiring a 4-seater I see there are several in this month's Miscellany... Madame's ears picked up when I mentioned them (thoughts of carrying grandkids in the back I think!). Anyone want a Boxster S  ? SWMBO might kill me if I sold that so soon - she loves it. And we're staying with 3 cars, maximum  Cheers,

Even if I don't have the knowledge of the future I believe that the price will increase a lot in the last 10 seconds of the sale. I would go more to 50-60 KGBP ... 3000 miles is really few and I suspect that this car wasn't drove when it was bought !!! It is like new and with all original specs, a real collectable.

If you have the money , spend it and enjoy every moment of you spoils. So rare and never to be repeated, what a jem. Wish I was in the country, its only money..........sigh

The Le Mans 62 model was supposed to become an almost exact copy of the +4 which ran at Le Mans in 1962. For that reason it has only the door handle on the driver's side, a quick release filler cap and a hard top, to name but a few.
Yet, the single windscreen wiper was NOT copied!!
