Description

The Holy Grail Morgan. Without question, the prettiest car the Morgan factory has ever produced and with a power plant to pack a suitable punch too, the Morgan Aero 8 has been heralded as one of the best looking British cars ever made - and rightly so. Powered by a 4.8 BMW V8 with an automatic gearbox, these rare machines are highly sought after and rarely come to market - not least with specifications like this car.

Our car was delivered new to its first and only owner on 1st April 2017 by Williams Morgan. It is chassis number 80 of perhaps 130 total build, and fewer than 100 in the UK. It was actually built December 2016 but then registered April 2017, so now qualifies for reduced Road Fund rate of £14.43 monthly.

Today, she has been enjoyed for 19,700 miles and has been serviced annually at the supplying dealer, Williams Morgan in the Cotswolds. The car has just been serviced in December 2023 by Morgan and is MOT’d until November 2024. Tyres have good tread depth; all 4 replaced at around 15,000 miles in late 2019/early 2020.

The Morgan factory carried out a thorough paint refresh in March/April 2023, and renewed the PPF for no other reason than to make the car factory perfect once again ahead of sale.

BMW 4.8l V8, 6 speed Automatic + paddles

SSL Ltd fully adjustable suspension & anti roll bars:
SSL’s coilover + revised anti roll bars balances the handling, removing the standard setup’s stiff front/ soft rear with power oversteer.
SSL's additional drop link allows for a slightly softer initial response to bumps, and some body roll, which makes for a much more comfortable ride. More info here:

As you can see from the above, this is no ordinary Morgan Aero 8. This car has been cherished and adored by its owner from new. We know this will suit the most discerning collector either as their first Morgan or to join an enthusiast’s fleet. We simply can’t get enough of the car.

As with all of our vehicles, we have a digital folder available on request containing more images, walkaround videos, pictures of the underside and scans of the service history. The car can be viewed by appointment at our West London showroom.
