nice... we have a 35th anniversary edition as well. Interesting as our gauges are in totally different positions. US market maybe?

Hi all, thanks for the nice words. @Dave and Rich: The dashboard is def. a master piece. But the price for the switches on the dash, you lose the modern levers and get the old Lucas version. It felt yesterday as she was driven very carefully the last years. As soon as the winter is gone and the tyres are replaced it will be time for a few passes, with hidden speedo The biggest problem with the 4/4 should not happen with the Plus 8 - hunting e.g. a Volkswagen Polo on a pass, faster in all curves, but after the curves you have no changes to overtake this  diesel cars Will be a hard time until April or May...

Hi Rodger, it is originally delivered to germany, but has a dashboard from a small german company building special dashboards for Morgan. Matthias Kauffeld. You can see a lot of Morgans with his dashboards. He builds three different versions, or special by customer requirements.
