Ello chaps.
Im not actually new, bit of a serious lurker truth me told. Im not a massive fan of the Aero 8, but only because I was left drooling by the GTN when it came out. I saw Charlies car was available last yr and was sorely tempted to follow through but for reasons various bottled it. I was mahoooosively tempted again with the SuperSports, but again the stars didnt line up right.
See, my trouble with modern cars is, well, frankly Ive got a lot of issue to be honest.
1. I see no reason for them to weigh so much. It offends me. TVR managed to avoid them weighing a lot, Morgan still do.
2. I loathe dull designs. TVR avoided that, Morgan still do.
3. I see no reason why a car cant do everything. My TVRs managed to do that, be competent sports cars, competent GT cars, competent every day cars and then sometimes loony machines. I used my Griff and my Sagaris as my everyday commuter cars. Morgans do that aswell.
4. Special. I need a car to feel special.
With the demise of TVR, choice become a bit knackered. Jag make blunted instruments these days. Porsche produce God awful interiors. BMW even worse. What makes a chap's heart sing? The choices are very limited. Fortunately Morgan still understands what drives blokes to buy cars with their hearts. I cant gaurantee Ill purchase one, I have a long standing interest in the Evora and the S comming out + some tweaks should see it at the 400pony mark which makes it the car it should always have been,
But at least its good that we now have the option and choice. Long live the British eccentric.
