i’m very disappointed that Morgan seem not to have progressed with cars that are daily drivable . Dream starting to fade and probably dimmed to a stage of calling it a day.
I know what you mean. A couple of weeks ago I was in Scotland with a few mates, one of whom has a very lovely Plus Four which impressed me mightily. My old 4/4 behaved perfectly fine on the trip, but coming home in the rain it all seemed a bit tired and rattly, it leaked a bit, didn't demist particularly well and generally got me scheming on ways in which I could find £80k or so to make the move to CX ownership.
Then I read the CX threads, do a bit of minor maintenance to my car, and realise that it's just not going to happen. All mine needed was a tweak on a bonnet catch, an adjustment of the steering damper blades, a couple of screws tightening and it's back to its normal fun self. It might not be the smartest Morgan on the block but it goes like stink, doesn't owe me anything, and costs peanuts to run.
The idea that I could fork out such enormous amounts of money (my ideal spec comes out at just over £90k on the configurator) and still potentially have worse problems than I do now just doesn't bear thinking about.
So unless my Premium Bonds come up with the old magic million, my saved Plus Four spec will remain on the configurator and my trusty old 4/4 will continue delivering the goods.
