The Morris Eight originally belonged to Edwin Vignoles, father of Richard Vignoles. It was given to him by his Aunt Alice during a visit to the UK in 1936. Edwin brought the car via ship as his accompaning baggage to Uruguay. This car has been in the family ever since. It has been featured in newspaper articles as a unique vehicle in Montevideo. It was put in storage in 1977. After some years, Richard Vignoles has decided to restore the old Eight. It is currently undergoing restoration in Montevideo, Uruguay.
