How do Morgan make anything new in secret? Do they make it away from the factory? Make it at night? Just wondering.. ?
They have a secret wind tunnel/water sprayer so they can make sure there are draughts and leaks........

Basically to keep stuff secret they keep it in the paint shed as they can't take the tours in there...

Don't know about that, I was there a few weeks ago and had a good look through the window.

Wow! Not seen that before. Actually, given the Morgan history of off road trials, it has always surprised me that Morgan has not built a series of space frame, long travel suspension, off road competition vehicles, a bit like the American desert racers.

I don't know Mr S! Where is our factory insider when you need him?
My speculation is that it could be a modern super-sport variant. Green, with a side air intake for the throttle bodies. Plus all sorts of special mods.
Hopefully with a better torque curve than previous attempts!

Could be aero based or even an entry level classic to make Stanley feel less lowly
having seen Stanley I think Bud is doing him a disservice , if I was Stanley I would retaliate by refusing to start at random times normally when well away from home.
