I wonder how representative of purchasers TMers are? How many owners never experience problems? I have had a think about reliability issues with my own cars from early Riley, MG's, Triumph, Lotus and then thirty years of Morgans and I can't think of anything other than that time when the current one cut out and my brain didn't identify the relay quickly enough. The first 76 4/4 was a bit shaky but I rebuilt it and it had had hard racing use before I owned it, but apart from a dodgy light switch once (easily mended) none of them have let me down. Things wear out of course but that isn't what people are talking about. The current 89 Plus Four has no corrosion visible, the leather is strong thick and supple and I have been very pleased with it. Frankly I am put off a little from a new car but, I would still love to order one.
I am with you on this one. I have had six used road going Morgans over forty four years, i must be a lucky bunny as I have had no big problems, and my cars have never ever been in to a main dealer. Had normal wear and tear, but no more. I can count my Morgan motoring in a few hundreds of pounds. Cant ask for better.
