SB's Take

  • This Morgan 4/4 is a beautifully preserved, classically styled British roadster, having covered just 17,000 miles from new
  • Powered by a naturally aspirated 1.8-litre inline four, delivering power to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transmission
  • Owned by its current keeper for the past 12 years, with careful dry-weather-only use throughout
There are few cars quite as unmistakably British as a Morgan 4/4, and SB is delighted to be bringing this remarkably low-mileage 1993 example that captures much of what makes the model so enduringly appealing to the platform. Showing just 17,000 miles from new, this 4/4 has had only four owners, with its current keeper having owned the car for the past 12 years. Consequently, the car is now being reluctantly offered for sale, as the seller is no longer able to enjoy it as much as he once did. Finished in bright red over a black leather interior, it presents as a wonderfully traditional Morgan, complete with chrome wire wheels and spinners, stainless steel bumpers, chrome luggage rack and badge bar. A black hood and tonneau cover accompany the car, with the seller advising that the tonneau has never been used. Importantly, this 1993 example benefits from the later 1.8-litre engine, giving it a little more performance than earlier 4/4s while retaining the lightweight, wonderfully analogue character for which these cars are known. The seller describes the condition simply as "very good", reporting no dings or scratches and telling us that the Morgan has never been driven in the rain during his ownership. The photographs certainly support the impression of a particularly cherished example. Maintenance has been entrusted to an independent Morgan specialist. While there isn't a comprehensive collection of service invoices, the history file does contain supporting paperwork for parts purchased and work undertaken over the years. Most recently, the car passed its MOT in April 2026 at the first attempt with no advisories. With its exceptionally low mileage, long-term ownership and a very sensibly set Reserve, we think this represents an appealing opportunity to acquire a properly traditional Morgan that appears to have been used and cared for exactly as one would hope. The seller is available to answer all questions via the Comments section below. Buyers should bid with confidence.

Key Equipment

  • 1.8-litre four-cylinder engine
  • Manual transmission
  • Chrome wire wheels
  • Chrome wheel spinners
  • Stainless steel front and rear bumpers
  • Chrome luggage rack
  • Front badge bar with period-style badges
  • Black leather seats
  • Black carpeting
  • Wood-rimmed steering wheel
  • Burr wood-effect dashboard trim
  • Black folding hood
  • Side screens
  • Tonneau cover – reportedly never used
  • Remote-mounted radio/audio system
  • Full-size rear-mounted spare wheel

Condition

  • As with all items listed on Shooting Brake, buyers are encouraged to examine closely all photos contained within the photo gallery
  • The seller describes the Morgan as being in very good condition, with no notable dings or scratches, and advises that the car has never been driven in the rain during his 12-year ownership
  • The red bodywork presents particularly well in the accompanying photographs, complemented by bright chrome work and traditional wire wheels
  • The black hood is also reported to remain in very good condition
  • Inside, the traditional black leather cabin presents attractively, with its wood-rimmed steering wheel, wood-effect dashboard and simple analogue instrumentation all contributing to the wonderfully period Morgan experience
  • This appears to be a particularly carefully kept and lightly used example

Service History

  • The car's most recent MOT was completed in April 2026, which it passed at the first attempt with No Advisories
  • The Morgan has been maintained during the current ownership by an independent Morgan specialist, although the seller advises that there is not a complete collection of invoices documenting each individual service
  • There is, however, supporting paperwork within the history file relating to maintenance and parts purchased
  • This includes documentation from Morgan specialists and suppliers, with a 2019 invoice recording a service/check alongside an MOT, oil and filter change and other work
  • More recent paperwork includes parts supplied by Melvyn Rutter Limited and Brands Hatch Morgan
  • Given the car's exceptionally low 17,000-mile recorded mileage, buyers should note that its history is better characterised by careful, low-mileage ownership and specialist maintenance than by a comprehensive invoice-by-invoice service record

Summary

This 1993 Morgan 4/4 is a charming example of one of Britain's most enduring sports cars. With just 17,000 miles from new and long term ownership, it has clearly led a particularly gentle life. Its traditional red-over-black specification, chrome wire wheels, spinners, luggage rack and badge bar give it exactly the appearance one wants from a classic Morgan, while the later 1.8-litre engine adds a useful degree of performance. The absence of comprehensive service invoicing is worth noting, but there is supporting maintenance and parts paperwork, the car has been looked after by an independent Morgan specialist, and its most recent MOT resulted in a clean, advisory-free pass. Buyers should bid with confidence.

Finally, all cars on Shooting Brake are run through a 3rd party online vehicle checker, MotorSpecs (note, this does not include a mileage history check). This particular vehicle throws up no insurance claims for damage or theft and has no outstanding finance owing. Nonetheless, we strongly encourage all bidders to undertake their own due diligence prior to placing any bid. It is entirely reasonable for any classic or enthusiast vehicle to have undergone cosmetic repairs that could otherwise go undetected from the provided photos or by any in-person inspection. Unless the seller explicitly states otherwise, assume that any vehicle or item listed may have undergone bodywork or paintwork at some point. Additionally, photographs may not accurately represent the vehicle’s true overall condition. It is the bidder’s responsibility to verify the condition, and any past repairs—including bodywork or paintwork—before placing a bid or making a purchase. If you have any questions or queries, please use the Comments section to firstly ask the Seller directly before placing any bids. Shooting Brake tries to portray the item listed as accurately as possible through detailed questions asked to the seller but would like to remind users that all vehicles are sold as seen and, as per all goods purchased at auction, there is a No Return policy.

Hi, appreciate you have not replied to my previous question yet but could I ask another please. The Morgan is a 1993 registered vehicle but the order letter you have photographed is dated 1997 so assuming this is for a different vehicle, do you have the order for this vehicle, thanks Dan.

Hi. As confirmed by the original invoice and its written content — specifically noting the 5–6 year build time — the seller placed his order in 1997. He was subsequently able to take ownership of this 1993 car, which had originally been ordered by a previous buyer who later withdrew from the purchase. Hope this helps and good luck!

Hi there, the seller has informed us that the underneath has received wax oil treatment. Further, the body work is attached to the wood frame, as is the case on all Morgans.
