This attractive Morgan was registered in January 2005 and was the first production roadster lightweight from the world-famous Malvern manufacturer. It was designed primarily for racing while still being an excellent road car. It raced primarily in the Morgan Challenge race series which consisted of between ten and twelve single marque races. It also competed in the MG Thoroughbred Championship, the Birkett Relay and the British Heritage Relay. This successful Morgan has won class podiums in nearly every race and has an extremely enviable race history which includes three times overall winner of the Morgan Challenge, seven times winner of the Powertorque Roadster cup and overall winner and several class podium positions in the annual six-hour Birkett relay team race. In 2011 the car was lent to celebrity driver Jo Woods for the Silverstone Classic charity race and was involved in a racing accident. What followed was a complete rebuild from the chassis up by the Morgan factory, resulting in a car as good as new. This lightweight roadster and its desirable record are well known in racing circles and rightly so. The file for this car is as impressive as its record on the track and contains invoices with a combined value in excess of £45,000. This handsome Morgan is offered to auction with a V5c registration document and an MOT test certificate valid until March 2025 and is ready for track, hill climb or just a fun trip to the pub.
