Can anyone answer me a question please...?

 

Is there any difference between a 2B chassis and a 2B Plus chassis?

 

If so, what? where? how? (yes, i know that's 3 questions, but you know what i mean.....)

 

I have a 2B Plus from 2002 and can't remember why i went for that option....

 

cheers all!

[Guest bloke]

i 'wish' i could remember the diff too...

[Guest TerryBarry]

I think that a 2B chassis is sliding pillar and a 2B+ is wishbones

[Guest chris brown]

I have a 2B Plus from 2002 and can't remember why i went for that option

Correct as you say Terry the 2B Plus had wishbones at £150 + VAT not bad value when you look at the problems some people have had with sliding pillocks

[Big Jim]

not quite right guys.

 

The first "original" 2B hag sliding pillocks.

then the 2B plus came along with the wishbones.

Then the Sub K that had the Mc Pherson struts.

After the price increase, the Sub K became the 2B/04, but the wishbone still was the 2B plus.

 

(Clear as mud!)

[Guest Cantbearsed]

Cheers chaps.

 

So the only difference is the front end set-up.

 

That's why I went for the + pack then...real sports cars don't have sliding pillocks!!

 

Ta muchly!

[Guest TerryBarry]

To quote from the Morgan Motor Company Ltd

Suspension

Front : Independent sliding pillar with coil springs and gas filled telescopic shock absorbers

Rear : Semi-elliptic leaf springs with gas telescopic shock absorbers

 

But there is a lot of difference between the Morgan and RH designs

[Guest Jim Poole]

And how about most porsches and the new MG XPower 385?

I think it is only that Morgan has spent about 80 years trying to get it to work. Even they have abandoned it for the Aero.

Porches haven't been proper cars since they ballooned out at the arse end, just look like Braun shavers on wheels now!!

 

MG ? Isn't that the current badge used by a company BMW sold for £10....? Used to be good old staid Rover, I fear....

 

Morgan have come a long way since their Tri-Cars. They now have 4 wheels. But at least the name has style.
