When I was last at the factory earlier this year it was explained that production of the Four Seater would be paused for a while because of the Isofix issue.
I spoke to Steve Morris at MOG16 and asked him about it and he gave me the impression that as the Four seater represented about one car a week through the factory, the pause in production could be a while as it wasn't on the list of priorities.
I surmised from this that we would see eventually again the four seater in production, albeit in a while
Having just bought a copy of the MOG Mag it seems to say quite definitely in the News pages that this is the very end.
Is this the end of my dream to order a Four seater and watch it being built?

I think it may be Stewart. I was talking to a Morgan 'sales person' at the Chateau Impney Hill Climb. He told me an even worse look into the near future for all trads. I dare not repeat what he said.

I noticed just now that the MMC official site still advertises Four Seaters for the Plus4 and Roadster ranges.
Does anybody have a logical explanation as to why the 4/4 doesn't.

I don't think there's been a 4/4/4 since the 4/4 Sport, when for a while the bespoke 4/4 was not available.
