Hi , is there a visual difference on the rear tailpipes, if a standard or sports exhaust is fitted on the latest model ?
Cheers Graeme

I was told no. The difference is in the noise! Perhaps the experts on here can confirm or otherwise?

Thanks, the reason I ask is because our car has arrived at the dealer & on starting it the sound isn't as I remember when I drove the factory demo.

I'll measure my (sport) silencer if it helps!

Hi Graeme,
I've measured mine....22inches/56cm.
Mine are definitely sports silencers and sound quite loud. I had reason to remove one and discovered that the central tube is 'straight through' with a slight offset between front and rear of the can and a perforated section in the middle. Mine is a rear exit system with twin stainless tailpipes each side. Hope that helps, John.

I thought the sports part meant cat/exhaust box amendments. Hence you could have a rear exit _sports_ option ?
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

Thanks for the help. As a £1560 extra I would think it must be a whole exhaust system ?
