I agree with so many comments here - never really wanted or desired a Morgan but respected their continued success and adherence to their brand and heritage. Also agree the BMW gear shifter turned me off buying a 2020 Plus 6, and I couldn’t learnt to love the rear end design despite liking the new front end and the interior.

And then I found this Aero 8 S5, V8. I think it’s gorgeous, countless people agree, and it’s fun enough with an auto box and paddle shifters to not worry about a manual.

Plenty I could be critical about but it looks great and sounds like a war starting. I am though very excited to see what Pininfarina do, although it might just put this one in the shade.


oooh, nice example thumbup

Anyone who buys a Morgan with an auto box needs to take a step back and ask themselves what car they wanted again... because an auto Morgan probably isn't it.
Perhaps they wanted a pretty looking roadster that looks like it fell out of a time warp from the 1940s, but was easy to drive in a 2024 sort of way.

Perhaps they're Iain Duncan Smith and wanted something that didn't require remembering what order the numbers come in.

It's a bit Wes Anderson, but he might require moving the mountain to make it more symmetrical.
