The fabulous Morgan Plus 8 was introduced in 1968 and continued to be produced at Morgan's factory in Malvern for 36 years. Assembled by hand using traditional methods, the Plus 8 had a uniquely nostalgic flavor and was, in many ways, the last of the traditional 'hairy-chested' British sports cars, combining old-fashioned styling with prodigious power. This beautifully produced book, chronicling the complete story of the Plus 8, will appeal to all sports car fans as well as to Morgan owners and enthusiasts.
Michael Scarlett is a respected motoring journalist who writes for numerous newspapers and magazines, including the Daily Telegraph. He is a former Technical Editor of Autocar, and his first book was Haynes Great Cars: Porsche 911 title.

A year-by-year account of the Morgan Plus 8 story, from the development of the first prototype and its delayed launch in 1968, to the end of Plus 8 production in 2004 and the introduction of the Aero 8.
