The Exquisite Reputation of Morgan's Face Furniture: A Look at the Company's New Car Creation

As I stood on the stand, surrounded by the elegant furniture that Geneva is renowned for, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement. The reason for my enthusiasm was none other than Morgan, a British company that has come to Geneva with something truly special. It's not just another car, but a creation that harks back to their very early days when they used to make motorbikes and cars with a three-wheeler design.

The company's reputation for producing high-quality vehicles is evident in this latest creation, which boasts an impressive 100 horsepower and accelerates from 0-60 in just 4.5 seconds. The car's weight is extremely lightweight, thanks to its aluminum skin, making it feel incredibly quick on the road. But what sets this car apart is its unique design, which features a Harley Davidson-derived SNS 1800 CC V-Twin air-cooled Euro end cap at the front. While we won't delve into the details of that particular component, I can assure you that it's going to be a thrilling ride.

People like Sterling Moss have cut their teeth on cars like this, and he claims they're "a bit of a babe magnet." I'm inclined to believe him, as the car's sleek design is sure to turn heads. The price tag for this beauty? A whopping £30,000. But trust me, it's worth every penny.

As I took a closer look at the car, I noticed that one wheel is actually a car tire, not a motorcycle tire as was previously used in Morgan's designs. This change has resulted in a flat profile car low-profile tire that adds to the car's unique charm. The gearbox, which is Mazda MX5-derived with a five-speed transmission, seems to be just the right amount of fun.

But what really caught my attention was the bomb release button located on the dashboard. It's not hard to imagine the excitement and thrill of pressing that button, reminiscent of the aircraft-style feel of an old Spitfire plane. The combination of a British engine, American power, and Japanese gearbox might seem unusual, but it all works together seamlessly, creating a truly unique driving experience.

And then, there's the matter of face furniture – or rather, the massive foreign mustaches that adorn the stand. It seems that the company has taken inspiration from these iconic facial features to add a touch of whimsy to their car design. I won't deny it; I'm hooked on the idea of this new creation and can't wait to get behind the wheel and experience it for myself.

As I continued to examine the car, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation. The combination of its impressive performance, unique design, and British heritage make it a truly special vehicle. And with its price tag, it's clear that Morgan is serious about creating something truly exceptional.
