When the covers came off, it succeeded in wowing the motoring world with a combination of radical looks and a potent 4.4-litre BMW powerplant, cementing the British manufacturer as a world-class player.

But this particular Morgan isn't just another show car. Morgan aficionados will be delighted to know about its history. Previously owned by the legendary Chris Lawrence who took Morgan to its first win at Le Mans in 1962, this '8 has a past like no other.

Malvern-based Morgan excelled itself with the Aero 8, creating a blend of its trademark traditional styling with the latest technology. The looks may be a matter of taste, but there's no denying that this is one cracking sports car. Think 0-60mph in 5 seconds and 160mph flat out.

Packing all the usual Aero accoutrements, this Sherwood Green example features a tan leather interior, revised alloy wheels and a host of other luxuries. All this and it's only covered 6,000 miles. And at a shade under £35k, it's got to be a bargain.
