The interesting question is: will Morgan continue to make this car when the supply of current BMW engines runs out? I would think this is a question even Morgan could not answer at this moment. It would all depend on market acceptance of the concept. I can see that this may lead to a whole new series of trad bodied cars. Also one must consider that by 2013 Euro VI cuts in and this could give rise to a lot of changes.

I, for one, would find a trad bodied car on a modern chasis with independant suspension and ABS braking very interesting. (sort of having your cake and eating it too). Personally, however, I would want such a car with something like the 2 litre Ecoboost engine, and I am not sure I would want a car as large in dimensions as the new Plus 8
