I like the new screen pillars, and is the roof release metal or chrome painted plastic?

Are the doors lower slung as they have lost the old Land Rover door release

I love the subtle wood tones inside, I'd have one in a heart beat, I wonder if I'll be lucky enough to find a bag of cash while out walking the dog?


Very nice.....

Agreed, and a very well prepared set of colours, trim finishes and optional accessories. Very professional indeed.

It does look good, and at least it should ensure Morgan continue to thrive - just look at the positive reactions to it on Pistonheads which is less biased & arguably more objective than we are!

I wonder if (once Brexit is done with) the old manual V8 cars will start to rise in value on the back of the fact that there will never be any more produced?

Until when you do not have to sell it, for sure laugh

Excellent brief video, I have to say Henry Catchpole really 'gets' Morgans thumbs

I was a bit disappointed that they did not also release an updated and improved version of the Aero - The Aero 6?
The potential is certainly there and it has already been mentioned as a planned development.

I would hope that when the 4 cylinder version of the Classic range is developed that they would also make an Aero 4.The BMW in line 4 with 185 kW (248 hp) would be ideal. 248 HP keeps it under the Super tax threshold in Italy and 350 N⋅m (258 lb⋅ft)
from 1,450 rpm would give it similar performance to the current naturally aspirated Roadster. I imagine however that they will more likely go for the 190 kW (255 hp) version which develops 400 Nm (295 lb⋅ft) at 1,550–4,400 rpm.

Let's face it if they use the same platform with different engines for the Classic range they could easily use the same Aero body on top of the rolling 4 cylinder version of the platform.
