The end of line in 2018? did they get an official title? Anything else? I feel the end of the line was the 110 model which was announced 10/10/2018 and included lots of nice freebies, Yarwood leather in any colour, head rest emblem, head seats, Baby doll Front Valance, Mohair hood pack (roof and weather equipment). I worked out it would save me about $10,000AUD based on what was included free that I would have paid for if o had gone ahead. Not that they advertised it as the end of the line but more a celebration of 110 years

I'll be doing a lot of reading to get the nuances right. Yes Chris, I remember now that the 110 was the run out edition.
Morganville has some Roadsters produced in 2020, along with the new Plus Six at 35 units. Does this sound familiar? I don't remember the overlap into that year but I suspect that this happened.

There was certainly some overlap. with PlusSix being produced where the Aero8 was assembled.
Roadster and +4 were in the usual area of the chassis shop.

Wasn't the last of the traditional cars the Plus 4, 70th edition with some fancy gold painted chassis?

Wasnt the Plus 4 Supersport more 2011-2012 or did they trickle out slowly? The first I saw was at the Newmarket Mog, which was 2011? I sort of piece it together from that. The first Roadster Sport I saw was at the Buxton Mog I think.
