Hi everyone, first post from me
As a classic car enthusiast I have long coveted the idea of owning a classic Morgan and thought what better place to come for advice than this forum. I currently own a Mercedes R107 500SL but realise the Morgan driving experience is very different to that. In the past I have owned a P6 Rover 3500, a Triumph Vitesse and a Triumph Stag which might be more comparable in terms of ride/ performance (?).
Question is I have around £25k to spend and wondered if I should be looking at an earlier and/ or presumably less good condition +8 (which I guess I am naturally drawn to) or a better/ newer +4? Or anything else? What engines and options should I be looking at etc etc. I know the general rule of thumb is go for condition, not age but also recognise that there were years when, for example, steel became aluminium and when longer doors and wider bodies in certain models came in - I'm a big chap and need a little extra room
I've done the factory tour and realise I need to get out and experience some test drives but in the mean time all advice for a Morgan novice most welcome.
