Anyway people are working on it, so we shall see if they come up with something. Morgan should certainly do something about it for future models but radically changing existing cars may be very difficult as it would require some changes to the frame. I suspect that the best that can be done will never totally fix the problem on existing cars. Any third party fix could be problematic and, if major components were replaced, would need Morgan's approval and/or engineers certificates etc to be legal in most countries. As I said before I don't see why having the steering rack ahead of the engine, in the same way that most other Morgan-like three wheelers are made is such an aesthetic problem. Then, as merlin123 has said, they need to get the wishbone geometry right. Perhaps they could work on getting a Mk II version to weigh in at 450 kg whilst they are at it

Hmm, maybe they could call it the "Supersport' or even, "Superlight"?

Any more news on the kit that, "removes all bump steer" Mogic? You must have enough interest by now to go into production, judging by the comments on this forum. I would still like a car that drives as good as it looks, which it doesn't at the moment.

I took mine on an hour and a half in each direction drive yesterday, on main roads, dual carriageway and motorways, and it was superb. Cruised at 4000rpm, just over 80mph, and as long as the roads are billiard table smooth, you could hold the steering wheel with two fingers of one hand - magic [or should I say, Mogick?] Of course it all had to come to an end when I peeled off the main road onto a section of typical British B road, and once again, I had to hang onto the wheel with two hands for grim life. Especially when there was another vehicle coming the other way!
When is that kit going to be available please?
