Post 90 classics maybe - by that era they were reasonably reliable and reasonably painted. My days of lying under a rusty old car on axle stands are over - apart from anything else, it takes me ages to get back upright! oldgit

Howard won't buy a Morgan , so don't worry !


Yes you're right max, I wouldn't have been so rash if I thought there was a chance of it happening - camels and needles come to mind.

I find my Plus 8 so comfortable over long distances to Kent or Cambridge, but I have a feeling my idea of comfort and howard's are at variance.

The rational choice for howard would be an Aero-chassis Plus 8, much more comfort than a Trad and the same traditional looks. They are much rarer than most of the Aero 8 Series cars and thus residuals are strong and likely to rise, particularly with the anniversary of 50 years of the Plus 8 next year.

However, as we all know howard's views on cars are pretty subjective and thus the buying process for his next car may well resemble Russian roulette! laugh2 We await the final choice with interest...

Maybe we should open a book on the possible make, anybody willing to fill in the odds?
- Lotus (must be favourite?)
- Morgan (Plus 4) 100/1
- Ginetta
- Noble
- BMW i8
- None of the above...
