Morgans are an emotional purchase and make little logical sense. Like Alistair I simply love driving the Plus 8. That is probably an appreciating asset means nothing to me, but it might to my executor of my estate!
Why are Morgan's so expensive? Because Morgan uses the catalogue price to manage the demand, they make 700 or so cars a year and are uninterested in making more. So it is logical to produce the most profitable models they can. Special Editions help this process. The 50 "run out" Plus 8s are expensive, and will probably all be sold by next year.
Next year will be interesting, there will be a new drivetrain for the Aero, quite what remains to be seen.
