It is an interesting subject, as has been said already would a young gun buy a 4/4 or +4 over a Boxter, I doubt it, the appeal of a Morgan varies by person to person. It's a personal thing and for me the attraction is the way it makes me feel when it all comes together and everything is right in the world. Preferably a sunny Sunday morning, bendy B roads, no pot holes, no speed bumps, no adverse camber....it produces the biggest smile.. but...I don't get the tinkerers, everyone has their own reason as I have said, it's personal but in 2015 to buy a car that you need to grease every 1000 miles or less is quite frankly madness, the tinkerers love it, I read about people moving the fog light switch from one side of the dash to another, seriously , really, I am convinced some never actually drive the thing but tinker endlessly, but that's their choice and that is their attraction to a Morgan. For me I didn't purchase as an investment BUT the fact that she holds her value is certainly a big justification to keeping it and a justification not to sell and buy a rainproof, well made, lovely looking, no need to grease, service every 20k miles or so Boxter....I am not looking to make money from the Mog but I can't afford to throw the 'investment' away so should residual prices start to tumble I'd be off......
And here is me considering a boxster over my morgan at 63yrs of age.
I've owned my morgan 5yrs now and keep thinking of buying a porsche boxster
I'm missing my last porsche as it was far more comfortable on my knackered back !
Time does funny things to your brain (and your wallet )
Whoops. Mucked up the response.
I changed my plus 4 duratec having covered 38,000 miles from new.
I got a Boxster 718 manual. I've now covered 11.000 miles and do not regret the change. The last trip a couple of weeks ago covered 2750 odd miles with no issues.
A test drive may be worthwhile.
Well I will be considering a s/h boxter steptronic flappy pedal stuff will be fine as even htmbo can drive auto ( all her licence allows) Up to 10k £ plus or minus 2k £ As the morgan is worth far more I'll bank the difference
I did 150miles last year in the morgan barely worth owning so I'm seriously considering moving to the more modern
I've driven plenty of porches in the past. miss my old replica 718 /RS60
