Hi, I'm new to the forum, I own a plus 8, 2001 3.9l, bought last Sept, and have driven some 500 enjoyable miles in it so far, have had the not uncommon stop light switch failure, but other than that the car is behaving very well.
One thing that does bother me however is the gruff noise from the engine when starting from cold, and its not just the tappets rattling prior to the hydraulics taking up the slack. The Morgan dealer says it's just a characteristic of this engine, once the engine has warmed up the noise seems to dis appear. The car was stored for some 4- years prior to me buying it, and I wondered if there could be an issue with the cat's has anyone come across this with the plus8, hoping the above makes sense.
