Description: Publisher`s description:
The Morgan Plus 8 combined traditional British craftsmanship with muscular performance in a uniquely graceful design which remained in production as the flagship of the family-owned Morgan company for 36 years. During this time the design remained fundamentally unchanged, although a process of gradual evolution saw a number of detailed changes and an increase from the original 3.5-litre engine capacity to an eventual 4.6 litres. The development, production and evolution of the Plus 8 is chronicled with the aid of contemporary archive images and stunning specially commissioned studio photographs, and the Morgan V8 story is brought up to date with coverage of the Plus 8`s 21st-century successor, the Aero 8. A celebration of the archetypal British sports car.
