The official 44 Sport brochure has now appeared on the MMC website. The pic against the grafitti wall is superb. The whole brochure is strong and should sell a few cars, which is what was intended. The previous image on brochure, the battleship grey pic in a matt photo finish, put me off, too retro (imho). The track day pack is also highlighted from aero sport, not for me, although having listened to the engine sound, it needs that sports exhaust.

The Mota-Lita wheel centre in aluminium with the engraved Morgan boss is available from Mota-Lita, I bought one at the show in NEC last week (to replace my black plastic wheel centre), it was just under £70, easy to fit and looks good.

There is the matching column shroud behind, Berrybrook sell this for £109 so far I have stayed with the black version.

Hope this helps

Christopher.

I saw one in the flesh at Richard Thorne's yesterday & they do look the business ; but I still don't like the round bit at the back where the spare should be.

Did you notice any significant difference in the gap above the rear wheel arch, compared to your own.

Defintiely lower just like the photos. Maybe that is why it looks so good.

But my +4 bottoms on all the speed bumps in my road (in Bucks they have hired the designer who did Russian WW2 tank traps, surely it can't be my large boned frame?).

Hope that helps

cheers cop

Calling DaveMack, How has that car been, assuming it made it back to Scotland. I'm still serving my sentance on the waiting list, so any news is good news.

The Sport's Great...
3,500 miles done over the last 2 months in all weathers. A trip to Ireland and a few trips to the north of Scotland. There was a few tiny problems with the car but nothing that RPM can't put right on my next visit. RPM were fantastic as a dealer!, I really would recommend them. I got the car with a new steering wheel and have added a few extras (mirrors etc.). I have installed a 'music system' using a pair of Linn speakers (designed to fit a ceiling in place of a low voltage light fitting)and an amplified bass unit at the front of the footwell. In the spring, I will probably add the luggage rack.

Great news, interesting that you visited Ireland, I thought I might be the first to land a Sport on the Emerald Isle when I drive mine back in January, but you hold that honour.
I noted RPM had a black one for sale but it has been sold already, they seem to have attracted plenty of interest (RPM and the car). Do you think the power, speed, acceleration will be enough for you. Sat here with no Morgan I have thoughts of plus 4's and Roadsters. I have already ordered the sports exhaust and air filter.
