Not all Morgan owners of the 4-4 series are wowed by the experience of ownership. Quality control issues frequently surface. If he/she happens to be a spanner juggler, the various matters are soon sorted. If that owner is a greenhorn innocent, then the Morgan is likely to become a thing of puzzled disappointment. How can a motor that drives like an agricultural vehicle, look so attractive, whether cocooned in a garage, driven gently on a sunny afternoon, or taken off to faraway places, and yet gain in value? Brand loyalty probably plays a part in the equation. My first car was a tired 1936 MG PB bought in Cornwall for peanuts. A barn find advertised in the Western Morning News. Oh! for the days of shoestring motoring.
