Personally I think it is only long standing Morgan owners that care. “Do you suppose the world cares a tuppeny dam?”, I doubt it. Most of Morgan's production goes overseas and the fact that there is still a family connection and a direct male descendant may be interesting but is relatively unimportant to the buying decision.

I would say that most buyers buy a Morgan because it is a classic car made with modern reliable mechanics and they love the look of it. Sure to be introduced to Charles at a show might help the buying decision and give the customer a nice warm feeling but I don't think anyone buys a car, say a Ford, because they had once met a descendant of Henry Ford (they too still have shares in the Ford Motor Company).

My thought is that even the vast majority of existing Morgan owners around the world know nothing of this story.

Having said all that I too hope it all settles down and everyone finds a happy equilibrium, and that includes present and future Morgan car owners.
