This is not a normal Morgan experience. Do you ever have driven another Morgan before, as a comparison to what you experience now? Our 4/4 4-seater from 1990 is older, but we drive it al a lot and so she isn't stiffened. Very important is the condition of especially your front suspension, as mentioned by others above. I realized years ago, when I had new kingpins, springs and reboud springs and Koni shocks that it made the ride more comfortable. Steering is always steady and relaxing, my only car with a more relaxing steering is the Tesla, but it has auto steering!😉 No fumes in our Morgan, apart from the typical Morgan smell, which we like so much. As someone who has a vulnerable back I had inflatable lumbar supports fitted and really, a long journey in the Morgan doesn't cause more backache than in previous, Volvo's, BMW's or Tesla. Two years ago, when the cartrain wasn't able to take us from Innsbruck to Dusseldorf, we managed to drive from Tuscany to the Netherlands in 3 days, and that meant also a lot of B-roads, because traveling is also part of the fun. And we felt certainly not broken when we arrived back home! So the message is: just be sure that your Morgan is really okay, before you take a premature decision! That would be a pity, you have waited so long for a Morgan!
