About this car

The Morris Eight was one of Britain's best-selling small cars of the 1930s, a basic, affordable family saloon built to compete with the Austin Seven and Ford's smaller offerings. This 1937 two-door example is powered by a 796cc petrol engine and drives through a manual gearbox.

It is finished in green over black and is described as running and driving. The odometer shows 2,300 miles, though the page gives no indication of how that figure has been verified.

The car has had eight keepers in total, the most recent of whom has owned it since October 2012. It is offered as a pre-war car with period character, and an inexpensive entry into vintage motoring.
