I am sure supplying Autocar with a properly prepared car helped to achieve the overall positive outcome of the test.

Lust at first date will turn to love (with the quirky edges that Love has) but I am guessing it will get seriously under the skin at Autocar. It will be interesting to see how many of the other journalists in the magazine borrow it during its time there.

The heatwave could not have come at a better time for Morgan !


Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

This was only an Autocar review. Following their normal pattern, if they do a full road test, they will have torn it to shreds and declare that it does not measure up to the latest Mc Laren, Ferrari etc.
The gibe about the door locks was enough to show they don't have any understanding of what Morgans (or sports cars generally) are all about.

Believing an Autocar review would help if they actually understood the construction of the car! I wasn't aware that the ash frame supports the chassis? Perhaps they want to perpetuate the wooden chassis myth!

I've the original 2012 power steering. It is excellent. Mike Duncan had a go, neither of us could see any problem. Good feel, precise, etc. I suspect the change is cost or supply related, not due to Autocar.
