Maybe it doubles as an "air brake"

Looks rather similar from front and side three quarters, but rear end much nicer. Interior ok but that was always ok but door cards nicer. Not sure the boot makes great sense and looks like water might be able to get in - hope not. Doors look much better but they have to fit rather better than the ones on Supersports and Coupes that I've seen.

Anti-roll bars are likely to be the main suspension change, although other changes to take new diff must also apply. Retro-fittable to earlier Aeros? On my Aero 8 S3 there's a good deal of roll at the rear although front roll is not really a problem and rear AR bar will improve grip and stop rear end breakaway. But my car much better than it was on the original Avons (now on the later Avons) once up to temperature.

Can't see it costing less than £90K on the road with half decent spec. Hope the vat trick has not been applied or it's going to be too much.

Still looks like my S3 plus £45 - £50K to change which is a bit too much but the temptation is there. My car's going so well at the moment (better than when new in every way) that I will wait and see how these behave once deliveries start rather than ordering early (like I did with my M3W!).

100% best of luck to the Morgan team though.

Once the 4.8 litres engines are gone then what next, as these S5 models may soon be out of date?

Telegraph are quoting a base price of £66k

Maybe they could fit the Alpina B5/6 Edition50 engine - a mere 600ps and 800nm from the familiar BMW 4.4 V8

Mine will be in Bentley silvelake, like my old S3

I presume it will be to allow the roof to fit simply, in the video the designer says the boot seals the roof in place, I think.

car looks very well built and designed from the pics ...

would be good to have price and options pricing confirmed

anyone know when it hits the roads?

something i read said 4th quarter 2015 production start. wonder if it will ever get to the US??

cheers,

Me too. Just asked Nicky if I can have one ... And she said yes !

Then 5 mins later texted to remind me to get lottery ticket. Oh well.

At the factory on the16th- so hopefully it will be back from Geneva by then so I can see it in the metal.

I really do like the way that Morgan are developing new ideas - which, whilst not entirely practical, retain that element of " quirkiness "- fitting the boot lid on backwards. Great!!!
