As one marque bites the dust another possibly is resurrected.

Any other info?

Looks interesting, one to watch but as we have seen with TVR, the financing will make or break this moving into production

The way things are going it may end up in the TVR factory.


Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

I cant help being reminded of the

Jensen SV-8
Breckland Beira
AC Ace Brooklands
Lea Francis 30/230

All of which unfortunately never made it into production.

I did some work for Healey Sports Cars Ltd years ago and suspect (but could be wrong) that this is the basis of this car. If I remember correctly Jim Randle (Jaguar X220, Lea Francis 30/230 Morgan Aero8 etc ) had designed the vehicle structure using riveted and glued Aluminium.

I wish them well.

Exactly.

The car looks ok, but launching a sports car like this now seems like economic madness to me. Unless it's being funded by a billionaire as a vanity project I can't figure out who would put money into it. I'd love to see the business case, market analysis and 5-year sales projections.
