Sorry guys.....I totally disagree with you! The attraction of the current traditional Morgan is the old fashioned chassis and suspension. It gives me the "feel" that I'm looking for. Rear disk brakes? The current drums can lock up my back wheels...so why do I need disks? Different if you are running a more powerful,car such as the latest Baby Doll or for competition use where brake fade might be a problem. If you change the chassis and suspension in my view you lose the essence of the Morgan and end up with a pretty bodied modern car with no character.
Still....each to their own. I've no problem with Morgan developing modern underpinnings....the Aero range for example.....they need to progress the Company to survive. Just keep the Trads trad!

I'm with Jay on this. For me the beauty of the Trad Morgans are the period chassis and build techniques (with all their foibles) coupled to reasonably reliable modern engines. The further you go down the bonded chassis and twin wishbone coil over damper set ups the less period feel of the driving experience, and the greater the similarity to the daily drive tin top. For anyone who wants the bonded chassis setup there are always the Plus 8, Aero and Lotus models surely?
