Once given the green light to use Rover's newly acquired V8 engine,
the Morgan Motor Company lost no time installing it under the
bonnet of their traditional sports car. The Morgan Plus 8 became
their biggest-selling model, spanning thirty-six years from its
1968 launch to discontinuation in 2004. After an eight-year respite
it was reintroduced to the firm's model line -up from 2012 until
2018, underpinned by a new state of the art bonded aluminium
chassis and powered by a potent BMW V8. Morgan Plus 8 - Fifty Years
an Icon gives a detailed account of the history, design and
manufacturing process of the Morgan Plus 8. With over 300 colour
photographs it covers both the traditional and Aero chassis cars;
the history of both the Rover V8 and the BMW V8 engines; includes
full specifications for each model; recalls the Plus 8's motor
sport heritage; features personal first-hand accounts from key
personalities and finally, covers the history of the mark and looks
at is future.
