I found this fake Plus 4 for sale in Queensland….I say fake because as replicas go this one is pretty bad in my opinion nono ….to each their own I suppose…..looks a little awkward, the bonnet arrangement is interesting, no doors, bodgy looking wheels and on a VW Beetle chassis…. doh

A cheap option to be sure….although "cheap and cheerful" normally means cheap and nasty….good luck to the seller though.

Have a safe and and happy new year's eve and best wishes for 2014... cheers party woohoo wine

Why is it that most scams in Australia, come out of Queensland and that's what I would call this vehicle, it's a scam. It is a not very good attempt to pass this car off as a Morgan, including the badges. cop

The vehicle details claim a 2.1 litre motor, while the comments state a 1.3 VW flat four. Who knows whether the engine is in the back or under the bonnet. Judging from the way the bonnet looks, it would open like a boot, it is hinged at the top of the side panels. It looks like from the handles under the spare tyre, the motor is probably in the back.

Looks vaguely similar to a Morgan, but stills sounds like a VW. That's dissapointing redcard

Don't they have laws against fraud in Australia? This looks to me like a clear case of trying to pass a kit car off as a genuine Morgan.

Maybe it is the first of a new range of 'Morgan's' from a recent previous employee of MMC hide
