THE FIRST edition of Morgan Motor Company’s most extreme road-going model has rolled off the production line.
Morgan, who are based at Pickersleigh Road, revealed the Aero GT to the world at the Geneva Motor Show back in March and the first car has now left the factory.
The company will produce just eight of the Aero GT variants and represents the end of the Aero 8 production.
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.
Steve Morris, Morgan Motors’ 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.”
