Steve Morris' (MMC MD) car  Never asked what the colour was, just enjoyed listening to the sound whenever it appeared around the factory

It wasn't a converted Aero but the prototype for the final run of 8 :-) I think we're saying the same thing! The text we settled on for Wikipedia is "Morgan MD Steve Morris was regularly seen in a metallic orange GT, which was a rebodied Series 5." I guess the underlying thought is that while there are 8 Aero GTs, this is a 9th one... Will

I never heard a thing about that... as an S5 owner you'd have thought I might have!
