It's simple: the sales of the MCV24 are very poor. For a new production
series we would have to manufacture (and pre-finance) 100 units. Based on
the current sales it would take about two years to sell the 100 units !

We still have about 15 units in stock.

There are no plans for a successor of the MCV24 (I cannot see why a
replacement would sell better).

Best wishes
Dieter Doepfer
