Cruella...
Cruella is ready for the road. Our very own RedMorgan, Richard, has very kindly taken a few photographs of her whilst she is still stalking the roads around Malvern and the factory. He tells me that there are more to come but this is the initial taster he sent me. Thank you Richard

Great additional photos - I agree must have been hard to choose as I cannot pick a favourite. I do like the one of the car "peaking" around the corner....looking for puppies perhaps?

Chapeau, Simon!  Perhaps the small indicator lights on the side of the wings could be changed into black shadow ones (I have them on my Black Devil)? Hi George, I like that idea and did think it was one of the few bits that doesn't 'work' for me. Are the black shadow versions still reflective? Do you have a link to where you sourced them?
Do you have any plans to change the look of the Mustang-style dials (that need getting used to)? There is a nice alternative for the central plate with black&white dials from the german dealer MORGAN Park in Hamburg (usual disclaimer..., just saw it on their website).
Which steering wheel and solution for the steering column shroud?
I've seen the work of Lutz and Morgan Park and they make beautiful custom dashes; however, I actually quite like the stock dials. I believe there is an option to change the ambient lighting to red, and this seems appropriate. I'll see how I get on with it but Jays custom dash has got me thinking... he is such a bad influence!  As for the steering wheel, the shroud is leather covered and the wheel is going to be a Brooklands but is yet to be fitted. Oh, and of course you can't go far wrong with a bit of Ferrari Rosso Corsa...  I dithered over the exact red and black combination but realised that from the very start I'd always envisioned Rosso Corsa rather than a more burgundy red. Once that was decided, Nero was the obvious compliment.  pleased to see the puppies escaped.  Hmmn... did they  ...the seats are rather well padded

Very nice Simon! Richard takes some lovely photos. Looks like he even got his own car into the background in a couple.....and his signature....stepladders!
Looking forward to seeing it in the flesh at some stage.
It's a car that Morgan should consider having on their stand at Geneva next year, if in the absence of CM they will be there!

One thing I noticed Simon....the seats are the old style. Why did you not go for the latest ones with the additional bolsters and new headrest shape?

Fantastic looker Simon congratulations.
She looks a bit like an Alley Cat appearing between the two buildings topless.
Anyone counted ALL the louvres yet ???
