Nice. I am sure he will be thrilled.

Re the v6 Aero I think it would stand a better chance of success if it looked like a " Baby Aero" rather than mimicked a Trad like the Plus 8. I could possibly see a market for that but I don't think Morgan will do it due to the development costs and the fact that in performance terms it will be to close to the Roadster. Morgan insiders have told me that Morgan deliberately "dumbed down" the 0-60 time of the Roadster 3.7 in its advertising material because it was actually well below 5 seconds in many tests and therefore too close to the new Plus 8 and could therefore damage sales. It would be the same with a Baby Aero. I think there needs to be plenty of clear blue water between the Classic and the Aero.
