Aeroman's Special Project...More Photos
Morgan Motor Company Special Vehicle Projects.
Here are the rest of the photos...showing the complete car. Sorry about the teasers earlier...I just couldn't resist!
I'll leave Brian to tell you more about the car once he's back from Salon Prive. But the photos tell quite a lot about the detail although whilst I peered under the car, it wasn't possible to take any photos. There did appear to be some louvres under there! I knew Brian wouldn't let we louvre counters down! I'm sure he will love to tell you more about the underpinnings.
The Rocket Red is stunning and really shows the car off well...and the scratch from the photographer's ( NOT me or Richard/Redmorgan!) stepladders is well hidden!
The interior highlights all the materials used in a traditional Morgan, with brushed alloy, leather, wood and paint and if anyone is wondering about the centre of the dash....thats an iPad you can see. Bear in mind there is no rear window!!

The only feature I'm not convinced by is the lights. Me neither. I can't say I'm that fussed about the roof come to that. The headlights are quite clever. The solid wheels cut down on brake cooling, so the headlight cowls are designed to channel air down onto the discs. Morgan have released a video on the making of the car which Clipper has tracked down in "The Malvern Arms". It does show the rather non traditional rear suspension quite well!

Why is it that when I look at those remarkable seats; I can only think of one thing? SPLINTERS

Very pretty but not sure it will win the louver count . . .
But, then again, if I had it I don't think I would care.
Cheers,

Mark, it won't win the count but there are some lurking under the chassis I thought I saw when I was crawling about on my hands and knees...as you do. No doubt Brian will correct me if I'm wrong.

Absolutely love it in all respects. Fabulous and my guess is that it looks even better in the flesh.

There's always one. I think it looks stunning in execution but I hate the lights. Also the 'buttresses' running back to the tail look too thick in some of the pictures. Similarly the whole roof appears heavy in execution. Hope it's better in the flesh and please don't shoot this messenger.

Posted on FB: As mentioned before, seating is impressive and should inspire future production (classic range included).
Cheers, Vladimir
