Me too! I'm Errr.....out! I'd think most people like me, who have a classic plus 4 would find that unjustifiable, especially if its the two of you, just think how many nights away that would get you in the peak district etc. And if you have family commitments, well that's a prime consideration too isn't it!
I'm not a great attender of things but had expected to go to the 75th anniversary of the plus 4. It's my car of choice from the line up as is the classic range.
Surely this is an event where MMC are trying to show off just how great the plus 4 is, how long its been around and how loved it is//was by its owners. This is the most successful car of all the Morgans. If I was on the Morgan board I'd want the Hills to be covered with plus 4 Moggies.
Is this just another ill thought out event using their chosen accommodation vendors and stuff the rest of us, or yet another example of pricing it for their over indulged current super car customers who on the whole don't see a Morgan as anything other than a car to boost their ego's and collection! Come on! It should be just a load of Morgan plus 4 lovers gathering in a field and enjoying each others company and cars in Malvern.
I do wonder If they will get the attendance they think they will showing both a true reflection of owners and cars that will represent the plus 4. Most of us who own, run and enjoy a classic Morgan of whatever type or number feel, I am sure, that they are very privileged to have such an eclectic and quirky vehicle which gives so many different forms of pleasure. The first consideration for the majority of us in owning one is "can we afford it" "Can we justify having a toy which fulfils our life long desires in many cases". If this is a yes, then we are truly lucky. In this day and age I do not feel at all wealthy, but I do feel that we are very privileged to be comfortable, yet are still careful how we spend our money looking after our family. Even had I set my heart on attending this event I most certainly cold not justify doing so, to selfishly spend that amount and not include all the family. This makes me feel that this is yet another step in making the Morgan a car for the super car league with classic owners holding it up as the unseen foundations. Classic owners hold a direct line back to H.F.S. and yes we do have undesirable dirty fingernails.
