We all start from a similar position of being 17 with a provisional licence, but with a very different experience growing up. We didn't have a car, so my experiences were limited to family & friends. Cars which made an impression were a Vauxhall Velox, FIAT 850 Coupe, and Lagonda Rapide ('50's). Sidevalve Fords, A35's A40's, Minors & Minis not so much.
We all end up down different paths but at least here we do share an interest in Morgan. This discussion highlights how diverse our tastes are. The MX5 is a great car. It's popular for a reason. It may not have a lot of character but stands out above most modern options.
I will never have a Caterham or Lotus now, but the appeal is lasting. I'm stuck in my youth, and can't see that changing anytime soon. Age does change perspectives though, so never say never!
