I have a V8 Speedster - after a 76 4/4 4 then a highly modified 4/4 (from new 2012). Part of my enjoyment was the journey from taking a "cooking" 4/4 up to a Competition spec car. It was a hoot to drive but once I had the finished product - it was time to do something "different".

The Speedster is a fundamentally different car- but strangely, it still gives me the Morgan- "feeling" ( whatever that is!).

People treat you the same way on petrol forecourts and you still get let out of side roads.

The dials still mist up - and the horn falls out of the Moto Lita wheel over big bumps!

You get waved at by passers by - and inevitably you are asked about wood!

The whole thing appears more civilised- until you don't want it to be. Then it becomes a bit crazed!

I personally really enjoy being able to waft along in 6th on torque one moment - then using the gears to make the side exit pipes howl the next.

I've enjoyed all my Morgans for different reasons- it just needs to be right for you.

The advertised car is not a Morgan Speedster- so not sure if they are trying to charge more/less for that description?

Nice car anyway.
