First Morgan Aero GT rolls off the production line destined for Perth

-

The first production Aero GT — Morgan’s most extreme road-going model to date — has rolled off the production line, destined for Revolution­s Morgan in Perth.

Morgan Motor Company will produce just eight of the special Aero GT variants — all vehicles individual­ly built bespoke to customer specificat­ion.

Powered by the same 367bhp BMW N62 V8 engine used in the Aero 8, the Aero GT will travel from 0-62mph in 4.5 seconds, reaching a top speed of 170mph. Each Aero GT will be built with Morgan’s latest adjustable suspension and come with manual transmissi­on.

This, the first customer car to be completed, is finished in Miami Blue, which perfectly complement­s the aggressive body styling unique to the Aero GT.

Steve Morris, Morgan Motor Company Managing Director, said:“every Morgan is built to an exacting specificat­ion and is bespoke to each customer and the first Aero GT off the production line looks superb in every way. It was a pleasure to reveal the car to the world just a few weeks ago, to see the first car leave the factory is an honour and I know the new owner will be delighted when they take delivery.”

Revolution­s Morgan are Scotland’s only official Morgan dealer and also offer a hire service as well as servicing, restoratio­ns and race car preperatio­n.
