In any event to spend £70k or more on a car personally, I would need own house, no debts, no future upsizing, £300k bare minimum invested plus good income stream and adequate kids education fund.

All very true and sensible but may I offer a slightly different viewpoint. wink

Given the hours I work and the job I do I need to have something to motivate me. I don't mind working towards a goal but it is good to have a carrot on the end of that stick along the way.

Every time I hit the starter button I am reminded that the next meeting will provide funding for short and long term. I never considered that a Morgan would have an ROI value (return on investment) maybe its a new angle on ownership. I arrive with a big grin and full of happy energy which I take into the meeting. Who can say no to a grinning (gurning?) idiot with a Morgan ?

If my good lady did not allow me to smell the roses as well then I would have wage slave tattooed over my forehead. I will trade the car but I won't trade her !

Man cannot live by Diesel alone. joy


Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.
