...... and thus makes the wood look like an aftermarket add-on. Exactly, a case of not knowing when to stop in the design process.

Thierry, that's good news as I think these cars will get a far better reception in Europe than the ultra conservative UK audience, always reluctant to change of any kind  They will be at home over there

I don't see any petrol filler cap, maybe an E.V ?

Yes I know, that was a joke, but I still don't see a filler cap for the petrol.

They will fill it up once at the factory and then it will go into a collection and never drive again, why spoil the lines if you don't need one? It is a "design piece" after all.
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

Definitely a collector’s display car.
At the big £££ end so likely bought by a limited edition collector.
Mind you, looking at the mileages that a lot of Morgans do it seems there are quite a lot of garage queens out there.
If only it could get into the California market...

Three cars sold by Morgan Belgium Just read an article about Belgium cracking down on car noise - Aeros must be in breach - mine used to set car alarms off! “Roadside “noise cameras” are to be installed for the first time in Belgian cities to crack down on noisy motorists. Local authorities have put in planning applications to erect the acoustic detection systems in both Brussels and Gent. The Belgian Highway Code rules that cars, lorries, and motorbikes are not allowed to exceed 95 decibels – roughly the same level as an aircraft flying over at 1,000ft. The systems work similarly to speed cameras by taking a photograph of the number plates of vehicles judged to have breached the noise limits. Belgian politicians were reported to have acted after a glut of complaints about modified cars and mopeds that are loud enough to wake up entire neighbourhoods late at night.” Source Telegraph
