Problem with that is the cost of testing and legislation to achieve type approval frown Unless you're building thousands of cars (maybe tens of thousands) it would be more than the cost of the existing Aero chassis.

It all costs big money which is why we pay so much for the rarity and individuality of our Morgans. To keep it in perspective, my Bentley GTC Speed (2010 model) didn't cost a hell of a lot more than my Plus 8. The Bentley has over 30 ECU's (courtesy of an article forwarded by Aeroman) incredible fit and finish, every gadget and gizmo you can think of air suspension and a W12 600bhp twin turbo engine. All backed by a Bentley warranty. I still bought the Plus 8 as well, but there becomes a point.....

Conjecture of course (development costs) but based on other conversations regarding other items/cars with people who know.
