Did the site you used also show if it is SORN?
Or out of country and so on file in another region?
Could be in a collectors garage given that low mileage 6700 is not a lot for 10 years.
I do remember seeing a black/silver Supersport bounce around a couple of dealer adverts in the last few years. I guess there may well be a couple of them in existence.

Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

Slightly odd MoT history ? Where was the car hiding from 2012 onward ? ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2023/03/27/Camera-operator.jpeg) @thierry242 spotted that there's been work done in Belgium (post above, Pic 127) So that'll likely explain the UK MOT history Will

The 4.4L V8 in the S2 and S3 had the same engine and it shows as London ULEZ Compliant. Euro 5 as Peter mentions.
The S1 had a different variation of the 4.4 V8 (single VANOS cam) and using a numberplate off the interweb (shows 2001) it also shows Euro 5
The last MOT Emissions Test shows the engine in Tarka passes all the tests by a massive margin. All it really puts out is CO2 and water. I suspect at high revs it is rather different, but that condition is not tested!

Well that made me laugh, care to explain the lettuce bit because that had me spending ages trying to work it out! Do they have a CO2 to plant comparison scale, those crazy French people

Wow, these are the one's built around the buy back Bristol powertrains I think if I remember correctly.
Well spotted.
It would be interesting to know what they thought it was worth.

Still a very silly price....for a car that is essentially a Morgan Plus 8.
