It appears that there are a lot of rumours and speculation. It would also seem that people who are supposed to keep details under wraps until official launch are feeding snippets of info which may or may not be fact.
It always amazes me when people are asked to not reveal info until a certain time are not honourable enough to do so.
Of course, can't see why there need be such secrecy to begin with but I certainly wouldn't be out breaking confidences when asked not to.
Interesting comment as I was first told about his car last year at the Aero Club lunch in the BRDC Club. As those present know, I said that I had ordered a new car then. It has pretty well turned out as described, though there are a couple of major changes that did not make it, and these are obviously being kept for the next iteration.

I think that secrecy with new models can be necessary, when Charles revealed the 4.8L engine early it had a very adverse effect on the current Aero's sales. I had always thought that Morgan people were completely honourable and would respect the company's wishes, but you do live and learn.
