I believe I saw this car a year ago in Morgan London so could well just "stay" in the UK?

Looks like a left hooker to me, from the angles of the lookbackascopes and also the curve of the wood dash capping.
I'd be surprised if MMC put the windscreen wiper spindles in a different position for LHD?

Not the spindles Tim but on the Trads the convention is that the blades park on the same side as the driver. Maybe Aeros are different.

Yes I think it's the same on the Aero's the wipers park on the same side irrespective, a quick check on Clippers video with a Quatari registered Aero8 5 confirms this. Jay Leno tries something new with Charles. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o51kA6ZU_O4

Yes, but on a trad aren't the spindles equidistant across the car? The spindles on that Coupe look like they are offset to the left of the car? Might just be the angle though.

The spindles on our S2 and Coupe are the other way around for RHD. I guess between this and the mirror it looks to be LHD. I notice his wipers are also parked half across the windscreen surround and bodywork. They will self-destruct and damage the windscreen seal until fixed. This was also on the bodge-fettle list.
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

Having said that - most of my mileage is looning about locally, not touring.
