Finally, some official news about the updates... http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/morgan-3-wheeler-updated-2014* Re-worked chassis to increase torsional stiffness and improve handling. * Centre drive unit and bevel box have also been re-visited to provide a smoother power delivery and reduce vibrations. * Steering has also been developed further in an effort to eliminate bump steer and to increase stability at high speed. * New urban cooling pack, which drives more air into the engine at low speeds to control temperatures inside the engine. * Larger range of vinyl wraps and colour options. * New 30,000 mile/30-month warranty.

We had feedback from customers in America that because of the different road conditions, we were getting more commentary about the bump steer.
"What we've done is to re-engineer the setup to eliminate that, and increase the stability. If you were doing 100mph in the 3 Wheeler before you would find some bump steer which could affect stability. This new setup has transformed that Owners will be pleased to know that "bump steer" only occurs on American roads at speeds of over 100mph

Yes ! I had decided not to comment on that for fear of upsetting the bump steer deniers ( spelling ?)

Urban Cooling Cowling sure looks ugly.... Hopefully we get some real pictures of the revisions from our On-The-Spot-TM Reporters before the show ends!

At least 'Urban Cooling' doesn't mean water cooling..! And it's only the hot countries that it's aimed at, so it'll simply unbolt..hopefully..
