I see they have done the decent thing and changed the front of the Aero to that of the Aeromax, seems to me though the basic price has jumped somewhat to £62500. I am not sure this will not push it out of a lot of peoples price bracket once you add in another £5-10K worth of 'extras'.

Anyone any thoughts ?

looks awesome. am umming and ahhing. interior is updated too - dash goes all the way across in that lovely Bentley / Bugatti spec hand turned alloy too. mmmmmmmm. Now if I could just get the right money for the 2002 then I'd seriously consider it. After all so far the current Aero has been the most reliable car I've ever owned (running costs so far in 9 months 5 quid for a blown bulb!).

HAve to drive one yet though so we shall see, getting the current model fully specced (sports zorst, tonneau, quick shift gears ally gear know mota lita wheel etc ) for current plans but could be tempted in the not too distant future...

In my opinion, the front of the 2006 car looks great. But I think the wide body car (from 2005 on) with its airbags, radio in dash, raised bootlid, driver aids etc, totally ruin the the car. Its a cop-out to sell the car in the US. Fair enough reason, but I don't like it.

Hi,
I am sure Morgan would make one for you with the old style dash and motia lita wheel with no airbags and anything else you want if you ask nicely.

I'm not convinced by the new front end or the boot. I think all of the curves are ruined. It doesn't look too bad in the brochure, but in autocar it looks nowhere near as aggressive as the old one. I've got mine booked into the bedale garage next week to change the exhausts to the librands ones - I can't wait to drive it after. Going on a track day on april 23 in anglesey in it which should be a lot of fun
