Why?.................Surely there must be other CX Plus4's at Malvern they could use for the launch not just the one that was sent to Geneva!

I guess it would have to come back anyway and someone volunteered to drive it back. At least someone has had some fun!

Does anyone know the time of the launch (think it was meant to be on Tuesday?)
From Facebook:
Details and pictures of the new model will be live on our website and social channels in the morning, with a launch from Malvern shared around midday on our YouTube channel.

When the company has a Web site why is it that there is no mention of this on their Web site? The news section has not been kept up to date and Morgan Live has nothing but a general repeating video a few seconds long.
I have no interest in joining any of the sochul channels for instant self gratification. I spend enough time on TM without adding some other invasion of privacy.

That is where I feel my Roadster is " I have put a dateless plate on it and it has 10K on it now (it is 2004)" - 99.5% of people have no idea how old it is, most think it is 1970's and has had a respray/restoration!!!
I do think people will be drawn to the CX Morgan - as it looks the same as most Morgan's but has modern underpinning's? That IS the attraction?
I think that was demonstrated by the Aero based Plus 8 being probably the most successful Aero based car for volume of sales. (May have helped that it was also best value)
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

Web sites are more effort to update than social media. Like it or not, the world is moving in the direction of more dynamic platforms than static websites. I imagine that there were old crusties in the 1930s grumbling at why they were supposed to listen to the Home Service on the wireless rather than being able to read it in that morning's edition of the Times.

I imagine all effort has been put into completing one fully working and tested prototype. A bare car for show as per +6 launch maybe, and a couple more in different colour/trim combo's which look complete for show. Jon Wells the lucky man at the wheel in speeded up video clip. I imagine the sudden change of plan forced upon them has left no time to update website yet hence the immediacy of social media. All to be revealed tomorrow apparently.
