Welcome to the Forum Jon. cheers

A Great Slide Show as well - How did you set that up - my Photobucket Slide Shows are slow with small pics.

Now back to the Comment above - After a factory visit and a test drive - that is the worst kind of torture (or should I say Masochism) if you have to wait a year. You will miss so much fun in the interim. Get driving ASAP. redcard somestick

Oh God, everybody is going to hate this - but have you ever thought of buying a well -sorted, used ( but not very old) car
You might find that somebody else has fixed all those little endearing but pain in the bum niggles that fresh from the factory cars have. hide

And you will let someone else pay the first year or two's depreciation - even Mogs depreciate in the beginning... spend

Cheers,


In 'Lellow's' Case, it seems to go up in price every time it is sold on. We lost nothing? idea

- when you make your slideshow in Photobucket, there is a cunning little drop-down menu right at the bottom on the right, below the "Choose a style" selector. You can choose from 3 different sizes,
which is nice....

I'm slightly tempted by the idea of second hand buying, but have really geared myself up for the whole new-Morgan experience: getting spec and colour just right, getting photos of and maybe seeing it during the build. I think it's programmed into my brain now, as I've been looking forward to it for quite some time (you may notice the factory visit was 2007.....). My grandparents used to talk about having a 3-wheeler, and they always liked the look of the new-fangled 4 wheels, but it was never really suitable for them frown
Anyway, I shall probably end up hiring one for the odd weekend or 3, just to remind myself what I'm missing (er, that doesn't work does it?!) doh
