Not quite, Alistair. Forgive my detail. They don't change the validity of your points. The first price list with the Aero I on it that I have is 2001.
Ex-VAT
Aero 47,234
Plus 8 30,210

Peter Morgan, as long as he still had influence, refused to allow a Morgan to be sold for more than 50k..which is a very odd way to price, but there you have it. The other models, after the legendary reserves were depleted and the limit of the new bank loan reached, were forced to support the losses and ongoing development occasioned by the Aero line.That is what caused trad prices to rise so fast as well.

Have you ever heard the French expression "La plus ca change la plus c'est la meme chose"?

P.S. I am curious why you use a Llama as your avatar. I often see them here, like deer in my once native Quebec..
