2015 Defender 90 Puma 2.2 XS CSW Santorini Black

Little and Large

The little (by industry standards) Morgan Motor Company is working on an all-new high-performance sports car that will both reinforce its reputation for classic design and move it on a couple of decades. The traditional ladder chassis will be replaced with a bonded aluminium platform whilst retaining many of the cars iconic looks.

Design head Jon Wells said shaping the new Morgan requires integrating traditional Morgan values into a new look that moves forward in era. “Our task is to take the charm of classic motoring and make it relevant,” Wells said, “so that it can be respected and desired as a good piece of modern design.”

It’s a pity that (large) JLR with the huge resources of Tata couldn’t learn a thing or two from Little Morgan about how to move forward but remember and reflect its heritage.

Having owned a 3 litre Roadster for 7 years from new, there is one thing that they both have in common.
UNRELIABILITY and BUILD QUALITY

Swine & Small - you should have bought a Three Wheeler then you'd really know what unreliability was all about.
