Well spotted.
It would be interesting to know what they thought it was worth.


There were two or three bidders who thought it was worth €100,000 over list - a 40% gain in a year.

As Peter says, it's essentially a Plus 8 - though as one of the Bristol Aero S5 chassis it'll also have anti roll bars.
With some body & interior tweeks, a hardtop, styling.

& did I read that Litchfield breathed on the ecu?
A report has it at 375 - a smidge up on standard.
IIRC the side exhausts offer similar power, with a whisker less weight vs the tailpipes.
Maybe the output of the 9 cars varies by market, to meet emission regs?

Anyway, it does rather make a regular Plus 8 look like a bargain!
It's not as if Morgan made more than a handful of them :-)

Thanks for the extra details on this - 100k over makes sense to me for a new Plus 8 at the 100 -140 ish mark it would have flown I think compared to the CX..
