Lets leave aside the question of regulation - that will happen whether we or MMC like it or not. Much more important is the appeal of Morgans to their potential market and whether it would be affected by a change to the ally chassis.
Seems to me that those who say it would spoil the appeal for them are missing the point. Overwhelmingly, they have already bought. Whats more they are a dying breed - what young man expects to spanner his own car or even kows what a grease gun looks like? MMC need to attract the next generation not the last one. And finally, their view is pure sentimentality in the sense that IRS and disc brakes and IFS and ally construction were all available in the 1950s. But the alternators and fuel injection and electronic ignition the cars now have were either unknown or uncommon then. There can be no rational reason for wanting sliding pillar front suspension or cart springs or solid axles.
