Richard, I think you just commented... ? (-:
Matters not a jot to me whether Howard does or does not buy a Mog, I like the cut of his jib, (-: I find it more interesting to have an alternative line of thought presented from time to time, as opposed to everyone singing from the same hymn sheet...
I suspect Ivan Dutton of Shed Racing fame still impresses a few by appearing in a variety of old bone shakers at various Bugatti, Bentley and Ferrari events with the well heeled in numbers attending.. (-:
Gotta say also that I have had more attention and compliments paid to my old Mog at a number of locations when in company with a line up of Porsches in times past, but then Porsches are a lot more numerous than Ferraris.. or indeed Morgans... ? (-:
If you are serious Howard, as has been suggested, it does seem for the more mature, perhaps an auto CX may well be the best bet...?
I am not as mature as you though past my mid 70`s, and delighted to still be able to enjoy all the shake, rattle and rolling along in my old Trad Mog, even though I have access to more powerful and faster kit, that in no way can compete in providing the great pleasure that my lovely somewhat patinated old Mog provides for me, and others who either just seem to feel compelled to smile or wave as I rumble along... What`s more to want..? Good old Mog..(-:
