Whilst I've failed hopelessly to sort me out a trip to the NEC this year for the bike show, a coupe of my friends have. But despite my giving them strict instructions to gather anything and everything in terms of information and data from wherever the M3W's appeared, frustratingly they simply told me that the cars were 'mobbed' whenever they walked passed, so failed to even take a single photo.....
I don't know if the car(s) were on a Morgan stand or perhaps Krazy Horse, but they were definately confirmed as present. So has anyone on here been up to see the new model and understand what is on offer as yet?

I saw a picture of a polished Brooklands one on the Morgan stand , Krazy Horse posted it on facebook along with some of their bikes on the Ace Cafe stand .
I'm hoping to go on sunday so will examine everything very closely !

Like HJP, I've only copped a butchers from Krazy Horse's facebook postings. Shiny, polished alloy finish fitted with a new Brooklands style fishtail silencer. Gotta say that fishtail looks decidedly homemade, though..
I'm up on Friday with m'boy, though.

I was there today. It is an official Morgan factory stand, not Krazy Horses.
There are a pair of Three Wheelers on the stand, a standard one marked "2014 Model" which has the revised uprights and the cooling fan fitted. The modified chassis is not really apparent. The other car is a polished alloy Brooklands with the Brooklands exhaust fitted. I'll try to post some photos tomorrow.
Ps. The fishtail silencer is a tad heavy handed!

The revised steering.....not sure, the arm is still angled! Yes indeed - and there appears to be an impact mark on top of the exhaust pipe...

Thanks for the pictures - that steering assembly looks the same as current cars to me.... Fan is a thing of beauty too isn't it!?

I'd love to see a picture-by-picture comparison of all that is different, from the '13 model to the '14 model. And a comprehensive list of changes in text too! My English knowledge fails miserably when you guys mention parts or use other mechanical terms. I always have a hard time to understand words like "cowl"; "bevel"; "bracket"; "uprights", "spacer", "louvre" (I guess it's not related to the museum LOL) "track rod" etc etc. Sometimes I get it, sometimes I don't. Anyway, and this to Jays, considering this email from Morgan to Mr. Rivette: http://www.fatcatmotorsports.com/Morgan_response_to_bumpsteer_emails_8_29_13.pdfCan you tell me if what they mention there - and have in picture or drawing - is what they did to the '14 model? I have scheduled a meeting with the portuguese dealer next week and I'm 99,99% sure I'll come out of it with my order placed, but it is a pity all information is so elusive. It almost looks like they - at Morgan - don't really want us to know what they are doing/have done/plan to do. Can't understand this.

As for the fan - well it does the job  - painted or metal one would improve it. I just want those rear louvre's on no.14
