Whilst at the Race Retro Show today....Morgan had a VERY small stand with just the M3W and Plus4SS on it.......I came across this wonderful Alfa and its patinated paint made me think of the three wheeler for some reason!  and as an afterthought...which is what the factory's effort seemed to be...here's their stand, complete with 2008 brochures which included the Aero8!

Patinaed paint certain looks sharp. And that Morgan display has to be entirely an afterthought. No large Morgan Sign as would be typical. The paperwork is just sitting on the bonnet of each of the cars instead of on a wall or in a stand. There are no large photos of their cars. Thats a pretty sad looking display.

And the +4SS I can't sit in to drive... Me neither if it has the iron-works fitted, as a matter of interest can anyone over 5'10" fit under the cage?

Not the cage - it's the race seat... At 5' 10 - 1/2" (last count a number of years ago...) I don't have a height problem, just a 'beam' problem with that seat!

Hi All, Some pictures from Morgan's stand at Geneva I had a chat with Matt Humphries (who reads Talk Morgan by the way) and he explained the current specs: The Green car is basically the standard car. It is sport green with tan interior. Has black roll hoops and headlights, polished exhaust and aluminium heat shields. The only options on this one are the decals and the mohair tonneau cover. The grey car is "bespoke" - metallic (not standard sport) grey, bespoke quilted leather interior, chrome pack (incl. lights, engine and cowl). He did say that they will consider painting the cowl body colour (for a price...). Other info - production speed currently still in ramp-up phase and at 14 3Ws per week. No plans to replace the s+s engine (not that he would be able to say if there were, I guess). For me, this was the first time I could clearly see the difference between the cowl being chrome or not. Aeroman - I think I was on the stand at the same time as you?

wow, what a HUGE difference between the chrome and non chrome cowl! Thank you for posting these pictures. Also nice to see the other "new" standard options on the car.
I do swear that those windscreens keep looking bigger and bigger every time I see them.

What is the difference between the mohair tonneau cover and the PVC tonneau cover? Just natural fabric over plastic fabric?
