I heard today that Morgan are going to produce a a limited to 75 cars, a 75th Anniversary Plus Four, for £75k all automatics with £5 k worth of upgrades over the standard model.
I think I'm really restricted to a Plus 6 , as the Plus 4 is just too tight for my 6' 2'' and wide frame. I've seen one I really like but at £95k, there are an awful lot of other cars available at that price point and hopefully and maybe a nicely spec'd Pinnacle version may come available at some point in the near future.
Sue naturally wants to be able to drive all our cars, so power steering and auto becomes mandatory as she hasn't been able to drive the last 3 Morgans we've had as the steering and clutch etc was just too heavy compared with our 70's and 80's Morgans. Sue as much as she loves Morgans is naturally questioning what else can we get for that kind of money and talking about getting an SL instead of her SLK but I'd prefer a AMG GT convertible or S convertible.with plenty of muscle to meet any perceived need.
These Morgans really get under your skin, maybe I should just buy a trad and accept the inevitable and basically leave it in the garage and polish it to death, just to simply satisfy that ownership need, so I don't feel there is anything missing in my life. I kept my Harleys for years after giving up riding them, I only gradually let them go one at a time when the coastal environment and lack of use started to accelerate their demise and the time felt right. Its a strange old world when you want something that really you cant use. LOL!
A Bullittt Mustang maybe a little too raw for my very anglophile tastes with a very Germanic twist. The search continues..............I hope the Supersport is a success for Morgan, but sitting there looking down that long bonnet with no rows of louvres to guide your way, just didn't feel quite right and I could have been in anything.
