Take a look at these photos of the remake of the classic Morgan sports car. It is completely handmade in England - and it starts out like a piece of furniture in the carpentry shop. After the hardwood frame is built for the body shell it is matched up with a steel frame that holds the engine, transmission and suspension, then it is finished off in the paint shop. Two models are shown here, the convertible and the coupe. It comes with a BMW 4.8L engine. No price was mentioned with these photos but I suspect if you had to ask then you couldn't afford it. (Hint: A deposit of £25,000 is required to ensure the supply of one of these exciting new models. It is anticipated to cost around £108,000)

Cool pics :thumbsup

Not much of the British "cottage sports car industry" is left these days.
It's great that Morgan has found a way to survive while sticking to their roots.
