The powertrain of the EvaGT has been developed over 3 years using BMW facilities for high speed testing, hot weather sign off and emission testing.
Would this mean it will share the transmission from a BMW?

I've looked at the pictures several times during the day and each time the car grows on me more and more. So whose it aimed at? For me with the aero as a weekend car it won't work and as a weekday car I'd love to say yes but I don't think it would go down well with my customers. I do worry that we will find them outside football training grounds  So for me it would have to be a weekend car, but for that I'd like to see some of the roof disappear, maybe it could come with a webasto style roof. I hope the life car when we see it if as good, and well done Matt H for carrying it off, first time I've looked on Pistonheads and seen an overwhelmingly positive response on a new Morgan. 
Slowly going green

Must admit I too was pleasantly surprised at all the positive comments though there was one with the same old same old doom mongering  I also agree with Asbo, re my weekend toy being a roof off job and would suggest that applies to most Morganeers but.... the Aeromax sold well! And maybe the key is for some to have a Trad or Aero for the weekend and an Eva for more everyday or Gt. You can still have your regular everyday mundano as well.

I am with Boshly.
Sunscreen at the weekends is wonderful but I need something more practical for the week. I feel terrible when I get in the VW Mogodon on mondays and press the perfectly formed buttons. It is like having to leave a little bit of myself behind in the garage.
Now an Eva gives me the best of both worlds. I just need a can opener and marking-out kit....sunroof here I come. Yet another benefit of Aluminium.
Well done Morgan.
