Hi Richard - Yes, while it will be longer as she will have to be older to go in the front of the MGB compared to the back of the Silvia I think it will be more special mainly because she can't have anyone else come along as well so have my undivided attention. Plus in a small girls eyes I expect it will be a very cool and cute car.
About paying cash, for years I had the feeling many people retired and took pay pension and part lump sum and some of the lump sum was used towards a Morgan. Sure younger people bought them as well but I thought many bought of the car as a retirement present to themselves after years of wanting one, that is what I was expecting to do until the retirement day finally came and due to changes in rules, fund earning rates etc. the all pension option made more sense. So I had to work again afterwards and fund the toy car delaying it a couple of years. I think things are changing and the younger generation are happy to borrow for what they want to get it when they want.
Yes it's going to be well worth the wait Chris, our No1 granddaughter had her first drive in my Sport at 3 in the special seat in the front in January 2013 and loved it, she's now ten and sits on the real seat in the front always with the grin in the Plus 8.

Yes Chris I've never been a borrower or a loaner other than to family, I'm a low risk person so would never raid or take advantage of releasing some pension primarily as I want to protect my wife is my top priority. We had three children to put through University and these things take time to recoup the money to start spending on toys, but we lived to tell the tale and have enjoyed 3 Morgan's over seventeen years so count ourselves as very fortunate indeed.
