Bit like other peoples babies I know ( they all look the same ) Now with a comment like that you must expect to be chastised. ( I did, having said something similar on my first visit to China ). I love the colour. It is amazing how certain colours show the body lines at their best. Stunning.

Thanks for comments chaps. I specifically wanted a +8 Morgan which obviously denoted a second hand purchase and the inevitable associated compromises but the colour of this one was definitely the deciding factor. Its a Ford metallic Auralis Blue. Ideally I wanted a silver car but I'm equally happy with this colour. The only thing I'm not so keen on is the interior which is a yellow'ey cream colour. Would have preferred a darker colour myself. An in all really chuffed with it and I'm in danger of exceeding my 5000 mile annual insurance limit with six months still to go ! The tractor is a 1964 Massey Fergusson 130 and is for purely functional purposes.

Seriously, it's a lovely looking car and the Plus 8 is an icon - no offence meant to other Morgan owners.  I love the tractor in the background, though to match the ancestry shouldn't the Mog really be a sixties Plus 4?

Smiffmog,
noticed the 04 plate - it must be one of the last built. Is it an Anniversary? If so, dont park it near mine or I will swap your stainless steel wheels over with mine.
regards Tim
