Depends which side of the fence you're on.
Some think that the car shouldn't be allowed to evolve, clinging to the Mantra that it's representative of a true sports car 1930's style.
Which I find faintly ridiculous given that it's now packed with electronics, has power steering, seat belt warning buzzer, wide wheels with low profile tyres and servo disc brakes etc...
It has awful suspension that severely compromises the ride and handling. This is mistakenly held up as a good thing as it gives a Vintage feel to the car.
Absolute nonsense of course. Even the existing suspension is badly executed.
I'm firmly in the camp that the suspension deserves to catch up with the rest of the car and provide a genuine characterful alternative to modern roadsters.
The traditional Morgans were sports cars up until about the 1970's.
Now they're in danger of becoming a modern pastiche of themselves appealing only to an ageing fan base.
The motoring equivalent of a tribute band to themselves.
Caterhams are still Caterhams but they've retained their core values while constantly evolving the product.
Morgan need to do the same.
I agree.
I always wondered what Caterham or Lotus would have done let loose on a Morgan chassis.
