I take the view that for Morgan to survive it had to evolve, you can take issue with the way it has chosen to do this but to be honest I’m not sure there were many alternatives. I have little doubt that the increase in production volumes will be largely sold in other parts of the world leaving UK registrations little changed from where they are today. In turn this should help residual values stay relatively stable, I note the majority of second hand plus Fours for sale are manual. In hindsight these now seem the poor relation and will suffer as such, 21/22 year models seizing at £70,000 now seem very good value when compared to new and have low mileages as nobody was able to drive them for most of the summer. I think the gloom is overdone.
