Guys,
Once again thanks for the encouragement. I'm taking all this information in and now I'm quite pleased at the prospect of fuel etc. My usual trips to the continent were around 6,000 miles per holiday and my fear would have been as much about 'tank range' as expense. You have dispelled that worry for me. With most thirsty cars you tend to be on 'forecourt' too often. Initially when I started continental journeys there wasn't any fuel after 8pm. If you ran out .. then you had a problem. That's changed a bit, but not completely. Head even a short distance off the beaten track and it's very quiet out there. (Which is what keeps me going back)Automated pumps aren't always working and can't always be easily found.
Great advice to look at the options list. I'll actually do that this evening. I'm fairly sure I'll end up with a previously owned car as that whole science seems to me to be the smart choice. I can imagine that a lot of the stuff isn't included in the sale .. which brings me to a couple of questions.
1. Is there any storage space behind the seats of a 2 seater? All the photos online seem to stop short of actually showing any detail in this area.
2. Is some sort of hood included in a 'new' sale? Lots of the new cars are photographed without hoods fitted. Unless they are hidden somewhere.
3. Is there a fitting kit for carrying a spare wheel? I notice a circular indentation on the rear panel but I'm wondering if there needs to be a kit for the inside etc. The wheel on the rear looks class. Love that look.
Thanks again guys and Hello to all I haven't mentioned by name.
Our Morgan dealership here (Belfast dealership) has more or less closed and there is no stock to go and examine. Does anyone know of anywhere else here (N. Ireland) where one could see Morgans?
Thanks again.
Mark
