Agree, complete and utter nonsense when you see the thousands of large diesel lorries and artics covering hundreds of thousands miles a day on the UK's roads alone

But that's big business


In fairness, the big HGV's are far stricter on emissions than any air cooled v-twin assuming they're not old vehicles. The unfairness comes with larger countries still disbelieving of the need for clean air.

With the M3W I would assume Morgan are tossing the eligibility for compliance back to S&S as they are the manufacturer. This emissions compliance is what is driving the agenda for all automotive engines, and it's easy to imagine water cooling coming into play with the M3W.

The F series three wheelers used water cooled Ford engines, so it would fit historically if a smaller, water cooled turbo charged engine drove that rear wheel in the future maybe?
