It's not at all bad. The wood on top of the doors is a bit garden shed, but reminds me of that blue GDI beach special.

It would be way better with a screen and hood. I like the wheels, and I like the bling.

I don't quite see why the wood on top of the doors is necessary. For me it doesn't add anything to what I think is a very attractive car. I agree a proper screen and hood, certainly for driving here, would be better!

Basically sort it out and it would be a nice updated TR3.

In your eyes maybe but the Morgan can hold it’s own on the Italian lake shore, but the TR would be way out of it’s league

Like it or not the new Plus Six exudes class and the TR’s nice as they were are pretty agricultural in comparison…
At around about the 200k mark this is a very bold and brave statement that has seen all 50 sold already and the new firm should be complemented and encouraged imho soapbox

Let’s be honest if they continued pleasing the old Trad owners they would fade away with them as well, just no future down that road.
They have to engage with the younger generation in order to survive and this is heading in the right direction as I see it.

Well done MMC

ps The doom mongers at the time the Aeromax was launched were similarly negative upon it’s release - I’ll say no more.

I could easily love that TR, it’s charming, but the Morgan is dazzling. There are plenty slightly practical ordinary Morgans with windscreens and mirrors, glory be to Morgan for commissioning this design,

In the right hands, in the right location the Morgan will be a mesmerising sight, not so much though if it’s next to the bins in the KFC car park on a grey British day.

My guess they'll reside round the Med and possibly California/Middle-East ... in the hands of owners with a stable of cars to profile in at will, with no need to take it out to the shops on a wet Wednesday.

So much has changed but I remember that you needed some way of looking backwards ... if you had an interior mirror then no need for wing-mirrors or vece-versa.... it could always have a discrete rear camera setup so as not to spoil the profile. Most owners will have three Escalades filled with boduguards and personal-assistants in convoy behind them so no need for looking back 🙂
