Reckon that's unlikely - although possible. Big name franchises tend to give new start dealerships a bit of a helping hand - often for the first 12 months or so: doubt if that's the case with MMC. They may receive a "demonstrator bonus" - who knows? But I think even that's unlikely with Morgan.
Most likely Stratstone apply the big dealer accounting philosophy of applying an immediate write-down in their accounts of any vehicle pre-registered. It then stands them in at a cost which enables them to price competitively. All "wooden dollars" of course - but it's what they might do.
