My Dutch isn't perfect but it seems Morgan plans to announce a car to replace the Aero 8

Showing lifecar pictures so looks like a confused article to me..
But then I am confused because my dutch is not leckker...

Mij ook.
It seems to suggest that it will be based upon the life car but hopefully our Belgian or Dutch mogtalk friends can resolve this.

posted this already in "son of aeromax is GT3..."

THEY CHANGED THEIR ARTICLE
when they realised that last week-end was Eastern and not Villa d'Este

they only "new" thing in the article is that they say the "new car" will be the "successor of the Aero8",

further more: wait till Villa d'Este,
or ask your dealer what he saw last week-end
(dealer-preview before shipping the car to Italy)

or
if we are lucky MMC presents a press-article before V-d'E

Hmmmmm all the noise has been aeromax II so i'd figure this is just a journo getting it wrong and saying aero rather than aeromax....

The rumour mill is in over-drive. For many of these journalist, copy fabricated from half-truths, guesses and conjecture is better than nothing to write about at all.

No one has long to wait now to find out the truth of the matter.

ps - it isn't news that there will be a Series 5 of the Aero 8... after all, there have been 4 others in 8-years...hardly rocket science ...still as I said, it makes content.

Now, if I could vote for news, it would be a V8 engined classic on a Aero8 / Lifecar style chassis.

(I'll have mine in 2-tone red and black, please!)

the truth: we'll like it, won't we???
I'm looking for a stupid reason to call my dealer

Reason 1 - you want a 3rd Morgan!

Job done... please post me a cheque for my consultancy fee

Well its always been said here by many of us that a lifecar chassis with a decent petrol engine would be great.. and for the long term there has to be a model line to replace the old school ladder chassis (I'm just joking before anyone goes apoplectic to defend the trad chassis....)


If simon is being cagey he is either ultra diplomatic (entirely possible as he is the personification of reasonableness on here) or something is afoot!

Why woukd the dutch know something and the blightly rumour mill be quiet though, that I don't get which is what makes me sceptical....
