I agree with John ( JtL)
If it IS Lorne's Plus 8, while it has been looked after in many ways and has some mods which I appreciate, It has, I think I'm right in saying been well used ( including as JtL says a number of trips to Eastern Europe.) Nothing wrong with that, cars are to be driven, but that usage has left its mark in terms of things like paintwork, interior etc.
I've seen the car close up on numerous occasions and it wouldn't be my first choice Plus 8
More generally, given the 'eccentricities' of Morgans and Morgan ownership, I'd go for a well sorted car over a factory new one any day
