Out of a US Mustang...sometimes nature is cruel. Well, there is something for sure missing in front of the steering wheel. But I dont even think a nice mechanical clock can save it...or a pair of stylish stop watches (a la Plus4 SS). The only solution is to dress the area with the flower ornamented photo frame showing SWMBO (at least then you will get something positive out of it....hopefully juggle)

OR,
One could, perhaps, mount a Satnav in that BIG blank space, between those odd looking switches/warning lights...

Just a thought getcoat

Great idea!! The challenge will be to find one that looks a little bit vintage thinking

Like this one - a 1920’s “SatNav”. Perfect for the Morgan -

As I feared, the dash is another step worse from the previous one. I can understand that using the matched gauges will save money, but if it costs sales then it's not good business.
Seeing that - I've taken a couple of steps back from it.

What I really do want to see is the sump clearance.....please......

If that's no better, then I'll be staying with my Series 1 for now.

Hi Dave,
Sump clearance is a lot better. Couldn't measure it but I would say it is probably eaqual or better than the clearance of the plus4 sump.
The offset is that the knee clearance is less. The tunnel at the handbrake is wider, probably to accomodate a bigger clutch/bellhousing
cheers J
