The new cars once freight, insurance , gst and compliance are taken into account must be north of $200000 which put them in some pretty rarefied company, for example Mclaren have a proper dealership here where you can walk in pay the man and pick up the keys and go, like a Toyota whilst being treated like a king , as they do in Sydney.
They have a model now not too much more expensive ...
I have not been for a ride in the CX chassis but believe it to be very capable, interestingly not really wider externally than my old plus 8
But with negligible space to put anything behind the seats where we can and do store a lot.
Insurance appears to be no problem, and since there are Toyota and BMW dealers everywhere here servicing should not be an issue, for bodywork we have a top Morgan man in Auckland though he may wish to retire one day.
I look forward to seeing Morgan's take on a new coupe in a year or two - a modern SLR hopefully.
Personally I believe that they should drop a compliant 1600-2000 cc engine in the 4/4 and keep it going till 100 years - imagine the interest at the visitor centre and with the press, also enabling a trad and affordable entrance to the Morgan world, (without the warranty and other safety issues of the M3W.)
Just my personal ramblings not wishing to offend.
