So... I've just finished my design for the Mog Mag 'What's your dream Morgan?' comp and about to send it when... Yup, Mog mag announce that they are shutting down the printing press... Bad news for Mog Mag I'm sure, but after a day spent drawing and redrawing my idea (and at least 3 years thinking about it) I thought I would put it up on TalkMorgan anyway...  It's a Shooting Break Aero 8. And would incorporate a pair of Purdy shotguns in a pull out boot floor tray, along with and a whisky cabinet and a cigar humidor for good measure. Considering the comp has closed, did anyone else have any designs or ideas they want to share? Best, JB

If it's made in Malvern by Morgan, it's a Morgan.
I used to have this discussion a lot with people about the fact (according to them) that my Vanquish wasn't an Aston Martin - er, it was. Just because it was made a bit differently, doesn't stop it being an Aston.
Your design looks great Justin - any other angles?

That looks a very nice idea for an addition to the Morgan range  Any chance you could get the designs into Miscellaneous ?

Of course it's a Morgan!
Built at Malvern with modified lines at the back but keeping the front end styling.
In some ways a hard top fourseater in profile. Now, an electric folding roof or targa type with no leaks.....nice.

Your design looks great Justin - any other angles? Couldn't agree more Neil, the Porsche Club used to have the same nonsense - it wasn't a Porsche unless it was air cooled. Imagine, they're now all water-cooled so presume Porsche stripped manufacture some years ago!  I do like the design, well done. Being pernikety the rear wings do look a bit too voluminous, compared to the very modern roofline, but as Neil says can we please see some other angles? Thanks.
