 sorry to go against you dear Steven, BUT... all new design with new gauges + new arrangement (see photo on MMC´s website)   dash ain't too bad, rev-counter on the left (in roadsterV6 on the right I THINK) but I'm pretty sure about the "old spec": engine hopefully has more than the 145 on the site, seems like current +4 engine and they promised more powerful...

But the Geneva press release talks about a new Ford 2l engine which seems to match the spec....but I cannot tell you what the old spec was.

The new Duratec engine appears to be the same as the one that the new Zenos E10 is equipped with. That is giving out 197bhp and 155lb/ft in what seems to be standard tune. it would be rather nice if the new Plus4 had similar outputs!
In the meantime, the new dash looks nice and a decent location for the clock.
Only a couple of days to go to find out!!

Morgan does not use enhanced motors in their production models, only in specials such as the Plus 4 SS and the Baby Doll. I would bet they are using the standard 2.0 L Ti-VCT GDI I4 engine which develops 160 hp (119 kW) 146 lb·ft (198 N·m) in standard form.
The addition of a throttle body kit, sports exhaust system, and ECU would take it to 200 hp. Add cams, tappered TBs etc. and you would get much more.

Is this the new dash (from Morgan's we site)? If so I quite like the look of it.

I agree and I do like it - having seen the painted dash in the flesh I quite like it.

And if the dash above the steering wheel is shallower due to not having the rev counter there, that means the column might be a shade higher, which would be a big bonus.
I like it..................
