It could be complemented by a rear tonneau/luggage cover and have a slot behind the luggage space for sidescreen storage (like the Sport) and an optional narrow (space saver) spare wheel mounted completely MG TC?
externally.
Ideal for people with small children or dogs, or people who like touring. Development cost almost zero.
A sort of cross between the MG TC and the trad Morgan."
That was Peter's (Gambalunga) thought (posted in another TM's thread) about a Morgan Trad 2+2.
As I'm very interested in the design of 4-seater and (2+2)-seater Trad-Morgans, I decided to design a similar car in accordance with his "desiderata", and showed it on the thread.
"Lovely Claudio. Just what I had in mind" was his reply.
But differently from Peter, I'm convinced that Morganeers are not 4-seater or (2+2)-seater enthusiast; They are only fond of the 2-seater Trad-shape (IMHO); and I say more......even they have to travel everywhere with their old-fashion/big suitcases put on a chromed rack fixed to the rear back of their cars...(and all that is neither confortable nor safe), it is so ....a "period" experience... that I think they, ultimately....,.love it, and don't want to change their habit.
So to solve my dilemma, I just decided to open a new thread about that, hoping to read your opinions.......
I kindly hope Peter (not me) was right!
Cheers
Claudio
