Okay I have found the aerodynamic test mule for the Aero 8GT before the body disguise came off.   https://www.facebook.com/fastcar/videos/10155762365586070/

I'm not sure the lovely folk at Williams realise how sloppy ads like this make them look bad...
... the copy's lifted from Morgan's press release without editing,
so still contains the link to Morgan. Along with mis-spaced text, random words, and breathlessly-long sentences.
I'm having a conversation at work on using what's called 'natural language generation' software, to create readible content from data.
Many a car ad would fail the quality thresholds we're putting in place; this one from Williams wouldn't get near publishing.

Hi everyone, new user here.
Long time Morgan fan but not owner (yet!).
I have a soft spot for the Series 5 Aero 8 and reading that it will soon be out of production left me disconcerted.
I read here that the cause is the end of the production run of the BMW V8.
Does any of you guys know if a substitute is in the cards or if the Aero line will die with this generation?

I have not heard of any plans either way.
We like to speculate about a BMW IL6 twin turbo but packaging is the key issue. I would not worry, just buy an S5 or a modern aero based +8 and you will get the same smiles.

Thanks for the info, Alistair.
Well... Currently my finances are tight due to a different kind of British sports car, so the Morgan will have to wait. In a few years I will probably consider a used Series V. The Plus 8 is really nice too, but I like how they worked with the new Aero 8 interior better.

Still no pics of its rear yet?
Williams are advertising one for sale on Autotrader, but not sure how you can order something without at least knowing what it looks like.
