There was a recent MMC article in Mog magazine where Matt Hole said the factory was at capacity, "Eight Plus Fours and seven Supersports every week ... that's some of the biggest numbers we've ever built" (and that would loosely align with another article in which the capacity of the trim shop was indicated at 14 cars per week) ... "We'll certainly make more cars in future years than we have this year, but I have no plans to break through 1000 cars."
