I have been looking at M3W for several years. I almost bought a '12 base model last year but decided to wait. I am likely in a position to get one next month and have a few choices. I am interested in your thoughts.
I will not drive it daily but I don't want a garage queen either. I will drive it 10 to 20 miles per month in Jacksonville, FL. Traffic is not heavy. We are hot but I doubt I will drive often in the heat of summer due to heat and PM thundershowers.
I don't regard this as an investment but I want something that will hold it's value.
I will likely do most of the maintenance myself. I have worked on Britsh cars, MGs and Triumphs, for 40 years. I am not a mechanic but I can get most jobs done.
Options today include
2012 Base with shark's mouth and a few upgrades (1000 miles)
2013 Base (7000 miles)
2014 Brooklands (Stainless Steel and likely my favourite but pricey)
2020 Heritage. (beautiful car but pricey)
The dealer are being great. I'd just like to a hear more voices given this will be my first Morgan.
If you have time, input on financing and insurance would be nice. I ma prepared to put 40% to 50% down regardless of choice.
Thank you!
