I felt that I needed a car that required a little less time and dedication to own and run and one that I could use all year round, had a hassle free and water tight hood, so I could laugh at those damn storm clouds on the horizon......
...but one things for sure... I will one day have another Morgan. They are just so special to own and drive, and the camaraderie between Morgan enthusiasts is, I think, even more special and unique among automotive enthusiasts....so long may it continue and I hope I can still share enjoyment in this wonderful group called TM
....I still haven't ruled out the wish to own a M3W,
....Nope....I've certainly not given up on having and enjoying another Morgan in the not so distant future.
You and I are absolutely on the same page.
My 4/4 sport was problem free for the 5 years I owned it, my reasons for changing are the same as yours. I miss it already.
Sadly, the F type is beyond my budget, and the emissions are way too high for what will be a company car, so I like Ian will be heading down the Merc SLC (as the SLK is now called) route. The SLC 300 which I have my eye on, reasonably specced will not cost much more than I got from the sale of my 5 year old 4/4, and despite having twice the power and weighing one and a half 4/4s, the CO2 emissions of 138g/km will cost me €800 a year less in company car tax than I was paying on the Mog as the break point is 140g/km.
Like you I anticipate ownership of another Mog in the future, maybe a 3 wheeler, perhaps even an EV3.
