A Happy New Yeare veryone. In a quandry/dilemma having sold my Aero8 last Year. Julians posts sum up my views somewhat, having owned only 2 Morgans (not8) a 96 Plus 4and a 06 Aero8 i feel a need to fill a void and the CX platform cars are very appealing. Although I can probaly afford a new Four or Six can I jusify it Hmmm ! not sure. Having driven both a Four & Six i definetly prefer the 6 (more in keeping with the Aero performance) so should that be NEW or USED !!. and what spec?

My thoughts are two fold

- Used Plus Six (find basic and add extras as and if required). The view I get is to avoid early basic seats in a Six and get the Comfort plus (the Factory test drive had those fitted and felt right). 2nd Sports exhaust or not ?. Not really a day one requirement is it ? so probably fit later

- Used Late3.7 Roadster. My concerns here are would I be taking a Big Step backwards ?- (having Really enjoyed the Aero). Suspension wise cant see it competing with a taught CX chasis (even if both front & rear were upgraded ?). Power wise it will be down (however so what - not going hard racing anymore).

So its down to:-

- Handling- /traditional chasis v Cx.
- 6speed Manual v 6 speed Paddle Auto.
- Trad cabin v Wider easier access platform
- Cash £45k v £77k a differential of circa £32-£35k (dependingon final spec).

Realistically the Morgan will be driven 6 months of the year. It will clock up around 2500 per annum and whilst it will be Car No 5 in household it will be a Number one choice.

Views /commentts on how to proceed would be welcomed
