Morgan 1968-2001 A Brooklands Portfolio

On the face of it Morgan cars do not seem to have changed over the years but a closer look at this book will reveal just how many models have been made. 1968 was the year that the Plus 8 was launched. The powerful 184hp, ex-Buick, Rover engine meant that the bonnet had to be lengthened and widened. Although similar in style to the Plus 4 it was bigger all round. The Plus 4 and 4/4 continued to be produced and all three models were developed in the ensuing years. The 4/4 1600 was fitted with Fords 1600 engine from 1968 to 1981 when supplies dried up. Fiats twin-cam 1600 and 2-litre engines were then used. They were also used when the Plus 4 name was revived in 1985, finishing in 1988. The CVH engine was replaced with Fords 1.8 Zetec from 1993 onwards for the 4/4, with the Plus 4 having the Rover M16 and T16 engines. And then came the Aero 8, totally different but just as much fun. A more complex subject than at first appears. This is a book of contemporary road and comparison tests, specification and technical data, drivers reports, new model introductions, factory profile, buying second-hand. Models covered include: Plus 8, 4/4. Plus 4, Aero 8. 320 pages, 900 illus. including colour,Soft Bound
