That is good - I was told November a few weeks ago, although I am expecting December!
How was the test drive? As expected?
It drives very well, corners with little roll and makes effortless progress. You sit rather high in the car but do not really notice it when driving, the high driving position means you look over the aero screens which is just as well as visibility through them is poor due to distortion in the moulding. If you are agile getting in and out is not a problem a less agile person might struggle and need to stand on the seat. The standard exhaust is very quiet, the optional sports exhaust probably better. Overall a clever bit of engineering by Morgan. Comparing it with the outgoing model is unfair because it is so different, but it lacks the visceral experience of the M3W.

I think the seat squabs are easily removed and a thinner one can be made.
H point on any low slung vehicle is an issue.

The seat squabs do just lift out but are fairly thin as they are maybe 60mm

Are we talking about squabs or cushions ? (I always get that wrong).
