For me it has to be the stainless wire wheels. Yes - a pain to keep pristine but boy do they look the D’s B 👍

Side profile of any of the four wheeled Morgans - the swoop of the front wing, down to the base of the rear arch and then up and over the rear wheel. Oh Yes 👍 Every time we sitz somewhere and have a coffee in the Lüneburger Heide or have an icecream at Hvide Sande harbour or so.... It is such a nice view...

Is it just me as a numb nut or are there more who had to look up Nacelles ?
It is also my fav bit of design even if it is cracked at the join. Front facing projections like headlights are just asking to be touched and caressed with a duster……washing the length of that bonnet and cleaning the louvers a thing to enjoy. Cleaning a Morgan can be sensual pastime unlike the Volvo . I would get a man in for that or anEastern European wash team in for that .

PS Every day is a learning day, thanks Adam. Adam what year is your car, mine suffered cracked nacelles due to faulty wings being supplied around 2013. They were bonded instead of being welded, mine were repaired under warranty. Did yours slip through the net ? Keith, perhaps you intended to address this to Morganmike? For the record, the nacelles on my 2019 +4 are smooth as a baby's bottom, but I have indeed heard that with time the join between the nacelles and the fenders (wings for you Brits I guess) can separate.

Yes apologies it was for Morganmike. They shouldn't separate as they are welded, I have had no problem since MMC welded them.

For me, also the side view with its beautiful curves, so racy, uniquely sporty and timelessly classic. As is the view over the hood while driving. Recently, I was somewhat surprised at how many pictures of my 4/4 from all these years and places I have on my cell phone.

A fellow enthusiast told me recently that his favourite bit is the rear three-quarter view, especially how the flat "boot lid" slopes down from the folded top, staying a bit proud of the wing all the way to the bottom. A subtle element that I hadn't really paid attention to before.

The trad* doesn't have a bad view/angle/body part........🥳
It looks perfect from every angle.....
It's obviously not 'perfect' but its imperfections make it what it is......
By a combination of total chance, evolution, design(very little), the shape is, close to, if not, perfect.......imho....🤷🏻♂️
The question should be.....what would you change.......NOTHING.......😂 it is what it is....
* I include the cx version of the trad shape, it's not as pure....because it's a copy of the original....but it's not bad......😆
