Interesting to note that the last 5 Morgan vehicles offered on this site have failed to meet reserve. Sign of the times perhaps? 1998 ? Plus 8 This one brings some contention over providence as it was built in 2000 but listed as a 1998 apparently to avoid the "Air Bag" compliance issue according to the interesting pre auction commentary - not sure how they got away with that.... It has a clear title so interesting to see how it goes. US$ 55,000 with a day to go. Looking good SOLD, US$77,500.00 - strong effort... That's over twice the price it would have been new ! Very interesting.

Very interesting. Late model Plus 8's are in good demand. This one sold well.

Don't forget the 5% buyer's fee on top of the final auction bid. So the actual cost was over $80,000.

Base price (USA) for a 1998 Plus 8 was $61,000 USD, if memory serves.

Exciting - $147,000 (+$5000 commission). Good restorations with the original colour and transmission go for £150,000, but this one has had a paint change and a different gearbox.
