Description: Morgan is the oldest privately owned car company in the world. They make about 500 cars per year, of which about 100 are imported into the US.
The Plus 8 uses a 4 liter V-8 engine, the same engine as in the Land Rover Discovery (based on the venerable Buick aluminum block.) Since the car weighs less than 2000lbs, it's a rocket off the line -- 0-60 in under 6 secs.
Morgans are unique in that the car's frame (on top of the steel chassis) is made of wood.
