I was speaking to Russell on Monday and he confirmed the production models would be without spares like the 4/4 sport.

Is it a wider body, or just the wings?

the frontframe is wider and therefore frontwings as well - the body still has same measurements!

True.

Sorry Ivo, I should have made my post clear.

So basically the normal Roadster Sport will be more similar to the 4/4 Sport not having the spare tyre (and also the bumpers)...

...will it be possible to have it as an option? I like to have the fifth wheel, it's more in line with the history (and also the racing Morgans had one or two spare tyres if i remember correctly).

I saw the price on the site of RPM above, how does this compare to a LHD version?

I am sorry Jack - there is no option called "fith wheel" with the Sports Series. If you want to have a spare wheel - you have to choose "traditional series".

Hi Jack,

you could carry a spare wheel of your choice by ordering the MORGAN 4/4 Sport´s luggage carrier plus a set of fittings for spare wheel-to-carrier, supplied by i.e. Flaving (i think may be "Mogstar" should know more?!)

If you choose the "narrow" (165/80-15) wheel of 4/4 Sport things won´t look TOO strange / "set-on-top" (see attachment below) innocent

It doesn´t matter how fast it becomes, but how it becomes fast. laugh2

Maybe I'm wrong, but wasn't there an option for 4/4 Sport to remove the back panel and to replace it with the one of the standard variant?

Or maybe I'm confusing with the option to add bumpers on the 100th year series which came without them?

Well in any case Mogstar is right, if the only difference between the Sport and the "normal" variant is purely a matter of different options pre-fitted then I feel it'll be better to fine tune the car by choosing the options one by one...

...but the engine of the Sport will be fitted also in the other Roadsters or it'll be unique?

What I really like, are the reflectors on the 4/4 Sport:


Don't know, if I get used to those round ones:


The third brake light solution, however... thumbs thumbs

Sunny greetings from sunny Luxembourg,
