Wow, I'm impressed by the quick replies.
With regard to the cush drive, as you say, time will tell.
With regard to the publicity regarding the engine, I have assumed that, as a small firm, Morgan do not have the luxury of being able to fully productionise a car before getting publicity to sell it, so, the thing will morph in various directions before and during production, which is why the original three wheeler used several different engines over time, and why things have changed with the present car.
I'm disappointed at the loss of horses, someone obviously left the gate open when the engine was fitted, but am stoical enough to accept the present situation, especially as those who have already taken delivery say that power is more than 'adequate'.
Does anyone know if a detailed explanation with drawings of the cush drive setup is available, then I will have a better idea of how it works.
