Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1937 Morris 8 Saloon is a rare pre-war British classic, running and driving, and exempt from tax and MOT. It's been with its current owner since 2012 and is presented in a green and black colour scheme, making it an attractive proposition for collectors and vintage car enthusiasts.
Condition
7
The car is described as running and driving, which is a positive sign. However, the description doesn't provide detailed information about the mechanical or cosmetic condition beyond that. Given its age and previous ownership changes, it's reasonable to assume some wear and tear, but without more specific details on dents, scratches, or interior condition, a 'Very Good' rating (7) seems appropriate, implying slight wear but overall solid condition.

Description
Description Running and driving; tax and MOT exempt; its current owner since October 2012 This charming 1937 Morris 8 Saloon, finished in an attractive green and black colour scheme, is powered by a 796cc petrol engine.
This pre-war vintage machine has had eight former keepers and has been with its current owner since October 2012.
The vehicle was previously finished in black and gold before being changed to its current colours in April 2004.
Featuring a traditional two-axle rigid body saloon design, this Morris 8 represents an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire an iconic piece of British motoring history.
The car was running and driving as expected while on site for photography and a short video.
It would make an ideal purchase for enthusiasts of pre-war vehicles, collectors seeking a characterful addition to their collection, or those looking to enjoy and preserve a charming example of British motoring heritage.
