This one only had one tail pipe out of the side, the supersport version has two pipes out of the side

Yes, it's the goggly-eyed Morgan Aero. The most cross eyed looking car I've ever seen.

Didn't think they'd sold that many, so a rare sport for sure.

As mentioned above Morgan Aero, the headlamps are from a BMW Mini lol. Later models weren't cross eyed. They sound very nice. But I'm a tad biased as I'm a Morgan employee.

Did they make a later non cross-eyed version then?

You could say they corrected the squint.

As I recall, the Le Mans (?) versions looked awesome...

Must say upper body plastic, so no rust.

Only trouble might be, if someone ran into it, a vacuum cleaner is all that would be needed, to pick the debris up. LOL

Love Morgans, especially the '8s.

Nice spot Andy.

Thought it was a Marcos Mantis to start with.

Goldfinger it's a Vauxhall Astra

Not what Morgan says:

The aluminium bodywork of the Aero SuperSports is Superformed. The whole car is effectively blown into shape, The passenger compartment has a layer of ash hardwood sandwiched between the alloy outer body panels and the rigid aluminium chassis. This wood will absorb energy and will help maintain the longevity of the alloy body over the life of the car. Morgan calls this process 21st Century Coach building.

And I'd love one of these:

I was going to say no fibreglass in the Morgans bodywork, all superformed aluminium panels, shaped by hand.

I stand corrected, and humbly apologise.

Still, avoiding someone running into you would cost almost the price of a new car for the repairs, depending extent of damage.

I do think they look good but for someone else to own owing to body easily damaged, and would fold like a pack of playing cards in a unfortunate heavy collision.

You'd be surprised how strong the Morgan is. The few I've seen that have had accidents, such as hard into the Armco at Shelsley Walsh or Prescott, have all survived quite well. A steel chassis with a wooden framed body on top isn't weak!

Superforming process is described on http://www.superform-aluminium.com/ . It's a fascinating process to watch.

95% certain that "the early ones" use VW bettle headlamps (the one based on the Golf MKIV).......and the later ones use MINI headlamps..

They don't look so squint now.............

I really want an AeroMax version....like this...

.........I remember when this was first shown to the media as it was a special "one off" for some Prince who is a backer/good customer..

And the bloke who designed it was a 21yr old who was on work placement (as part of his design course).................

And Morgan where showered with blank cheques.............so they relented and built it for sale.

Prince Sturdza is the chap you are on about, he owns a bank. On another note I built his black Morgan 3 Wheeler, that's my job.
