- A modern Morgan for the 21st century
The first all-new Morgan to come out of Pickersleigh Road since the
+4+ in 1964, the Aero 8 was earth-shattering to Morgan faithful
when introduced in 2001. With an all-aluminium chassis - a Morgan
first - and a BMW V-8, Morgan hoped that the Aero 8 would keep the
family owned company relevant in the 21st century. It proved to be
quite successful, and the car's first major revision came in 2010
for the company's centenary, the Aero SuperSports. With 362 bhp,
370 foot-pounds of torque on tap, a kerb weight of 1,110 kg and
slightly subdued styling compared to the original Aero 8, it was a
sports car for the sophisticate.
Delivered through London Morgan and finished in Lapis Blue over a
Tan leather interior with a silver roof and fitted with an
automatic transmission, this example was produced for the 2015
model year, the last year of production for the Aero SuperSports.
Imported to Switzerland by its current owner in 2017, this Morgan
presents today in virtually as-new condition. Oozing British
character throughout, a Morgan SuperSports is the perfect car for
someone looking for modern performance, hand-built character and to
stand out from the spots car establishment. It would certainly not
disappoint.To view this car and others currently consigned to this
