Capots Vintage, a specialist in sports and classic vehicles in Lyon, is offering for sale a rare Morgan Plus 8 "35th Anniversary", produced in a limited edition of just 100. It celebrates 35 years since the Morgan Plus 8 was launched in 1968 and marks the end of the era of Rover V8-powered Morgan Plus 8s, before their return in 2012 with BMW engines until 2018.
