and now a F***king diesel engine.....
They started with these
They've gone full circle
That said, and without digressing too much, I drove a 997 GT3 RS a few weeks back (on track) and as I've always said, as long as they still build the GT3 and the RS, they can sell as many compromised cars as they want to fund it.
Re Morgan, my hope is that we see a logical progression of line up: -
Keep the Trad 4
Keep the Trad V6
and add a new Trad V8 based on a new aluminium bonded chassis. If they need an idea of where to get the engine, I'd like to put forward
this .
Okay, perhaps that is a little too much... still, we can dream!
I'd love to see a Matt Humphries designed Trad V8 - a bridge between the Aero and the 4/4 Sport in terms of style (smaller than an Aero and more technically advanced than a Sport in its construction). I do not believe a 3rd product line is required as the chassis and other updates could be used in ensuring the Trad line has long and prosperous future by avoiding the legislative hatchet the government wields under the guise of H&S and the environment.
Something light and nimble but with good grunt (and sound) would appeal to me (it is what attracted me to the Aero 8). In fact, as I'm thinking while typing, I'd be quite happy with a very efficient V6 that made the right noise. This would keep the V8 for the 'Aero-style' range and make a clear division in product line.
Hmmn... whatever the outcome, it is rather exciting to consider what the next Morgan will be.
