Morgans are one of only two hand-made factory cars still produced on Earth. ...in the Malvern Link, Wales manufactory which has been in continuous family-owned production now for just under 100 years.
...Notice the similarities between mine and the one in the following, more contemporary, listing: here
As you see, one could be ordered from the factory today that is almost identical in appearance to the car that I am offering for sale.
Morgan's wood sub-framing and carriage-built bodies back to the time of individual craftsmen (and women).
Through the years, notable famous owners include Muhammed Ali, Bridget Bardot, Mick Jagger...
