Win Our 1947 Morris Eight Series E

Our 1947 Morris Eight Series E is a fantastic example of post-war British motoring. Built at Morris Motors’ Cowley factory in Oxford, it dates to a time when the UK was rebuilding after the Second World War, when cars like this were essential to getting the nation moving again.

Powered by a simple and reliable 918cc side-valve engine, the Morris Eight was designed to be economical, easy to maintain, and practical for family use. While modest in performance, it earned a reputation for durability and dependability, qualities that made it one of Britain’s most popular small cars of its time.

Our Morris Eight is a matching-numbers example. This is something that is increasingly valued in the classic car world.

With its pre-war styling, simple interior, and honest engineering, our Morris Eight is a perfect example of post-war British reliance.

This car can be run on synthetic fuel as well as traditional petrol.

As part of our commitment to sustainability, we run all of our competition cars on synthetic fuel. This is a like-for-like fossil-free alternative to petrol that reduces emissions by up to 80%. This can be mixed with traditional petrol and no modifications to the car are required. You can fuel this car with traditional petrol – we simply use synthetic fuel as part of our sustainability goals.
