Some very interesting views on new Vs cherished.

I would imagine that 'most' used Morgans are pretty honest cars - in that you're unlikely to find one with a dodgy history (unlike buying maybe a Ford Fiesta or something). Also there's a knowledgable crowd within the Morgan community to give advice on a used one.

I'm pretty happy with my Roadster and the build experience was very similar to the Aston one when my Vanquish was made. But I could definitely see me in an older +8 in the future - I have a hankering for the older dials, the burble of the V8, the trad body etc.

Nearly a year in to driving a Morgan, I've driven more miles and genuinely enjoyed it more than most supercars I've owned. I don't have the feeling of driving the fastest production car in the world - but to be honest those feelings were so fleeting AND risky in licence terms. In the Morgan everyone lets you out at junctions (it's true!) and tootling about on country lanes is a joy. So I can definitely see me staying with the marque... But maybe not a new one next time.
