This is exactly my point. I completely understand why someone might want a traditionally-styled car but with up to date underpinnings, and that's what a modern Morgan delivers.

I also understand why someone would want a traditional Morgan with none of those fancy modern fripperies. The thing is, you can easily buy one of these for far less money than buying new, so why worry that you can't get them new any more? £30k will buy a completely mint +4 with relatively few miles on it, you could throw another £10 or 15k at it getting it set up and personalised exactly to your specification, stick an ageless plate on it so nobody would know how old it actually was and still have £15k left over the price of a new one.
