Omschrijving
The Morgan Aero 8 is a model that holds a special place within the brand. The Aero 8 was the model with which Morgan made the transition to an aluminium chassis. This Series 5 is the latest and most refined incarnation of that concept, combining engineering with traditional craftsmanship. Handcrafted with an eye for detail, yet technically a step forward.
Under the long bonnet lies the 4.8-litre V8, mated to an automatic transmission. The engine delivers 368 bhp and provides a direct and mechanical driving experience. Combined with the side exhaust and the Aero Racing sports exhaust system, the car produces a sound that suits its character. Unfiltered, yet pure and commanding. Driving an Aero 8 is different from driving modern sports cars. You feel more, hear more and are more aware of what the car is doing. On a quiet road, with the mohair soft top open, the car really comes into its own. This is not a car for those in a hurry, but for journeys where the road itself takes centre stage.
This particular example also features details such as the Aero logo in the headrests, box-weave carpets and a photo book documenting the build process, which completes the car’s story.
The Morgan Aero 8 Series 5 is not a car you choose to get from A to B. It is a car you pick because you want to drive. Because you see a route and think, ‘I want to go there’, for no particular reason.
