Feeling very sad at seeing my much loved 1935 MG PA which I Supercharged being loaded on a trailer by its new owner taking it to a new life in the South of France.
Strange that you get more potential buyers from other countries than the UK, perhaps they are all financially better off?
A car I had restored chassis up over the last 6 years, but not being suitable for the Motorways and A roads, I bought a 4/4 Sport, which has a similar feeling when driving open top, but much better performance brakes etc, and does not raise the blood pressure of those who always feel they must hassle you to speed up on country roads.

Hi Easter,
I certainly like the 4/4 it goes very well and it has a good exhaust note from the side exhaust when driven fast.

A lot of earlier Morgans are also going abroad - many into EU. With the present exchange rates, prices here are cheap for foreign buyers.
Cheers,
