Sadly I have to agree with PeterJ earlier comments. Big Govt. still write one size fits all regulations. Two years ago, the U.S. drafted new regulations allowing small manufacturers such as Morgan to be exempt if manufacturing "like and kind" cars. In other words, the current 4/4, +4, +8 and Roadster would be exempt from DOT, EPA regulations on the basis of small production and limited use. Still waiting the signatures for final approval. Originally total production read 5,000 cars/year but think this was reduced to 3000. Final may be lower. Morgan have indicated to dealers that they will start with the Roadster(more profit?) rather than the +4 which majority of buyers want. Fortunately, the M3W, once registered here in Arizona is not subject to any further inspection. Like the new UK rule, 25 year old cars are no longer subject to any inspection. Only requirement is insurance. We are likely to see more Federal regulations rolled back and fewer issued. TomS
