My first Aero which was fully service stamped had a wayward piece of ally fitted to raise the rail which had sheered the plastic lug the professional Morgan oik screwed a selftapper into the headlight against the rail to gain adgustement. A service on the car used to fill me with dread only because of the headlight a ridiculous state of affairs really and one of the many reasons I decided to sell. I will never have another car with sense of theatre the series 1 had and whatever anyone tells you the suspension got a bit muted on the later models. Em


Agreed re later suspension be muted.

My Son (works for MMC) drove my S1 and was well impressed commenting on how the suspension worked better than later cars he’d driven.
