The review isn´t it worth to become upset at all. As Simon notes MSN is more targeted to the US audience. There we are: A review from an ignorant writer written for a target group which never is able and allowed to buy and drive a new Trad, whichever. The review reads as if the writer normally drives only breed like Z4, SLK etc. Therefore it is partly not so very very bad. But he doesn´t get the clou regarding the sense and spirit of a Morgan. The review reads very incoherent and it is an unforgivable shame to sum her up to be the most disappointing cars of 2012.
P.S. If he really would have driven the Roadster to her most enjoyable limits he would know better that there is NO ABS.

In that case there really is no excuse for this moron, Richard Holt of the Daily Telegraph, a British motoring journalist who will hopefully find a few TM heavies calling on him before long - http://www.telegraph.co.uk/motoring/classiccars/8431636/Classic-Morgan-Plus-8.html

This Mr. Richard Holt seems to be not only ignorant but a silken sissy as well. Is he a native English man?

Oh boo hoo. The Ferrari Dino was broken, (as Tom Jones would say .....it's not unusual) so he had to have a plus 8 for a weekend. Poor him. It didn't escape my attention that the plus 8 was, er, working and available. As mentioned earlier in the thread, one of the big attractions of Morgans to many of us is the vintage driving experience they provide without all the hassle and unreliability. If Richard Holt had approached the car with a positive attitude, instead of sulking about the broken Fezza he could have enjoyed a fantastic weekend with it.

After those two incompetent and not at all serious reviews, here is one better made. Nice scenery showing the Aero in a full blast. Again it´s the same old story about the difficulties of making comparisons. A Morgan is hardly to compare. The competitor is in another market, only the price tag and acceleration figure give a match. Very enjoyable to look at nevertheless. The only downside is, that a wet race track is definitely not the place where an Aero feels at home. The fitting lifestyle for this kind of car is missing. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkeaRYrXwV8
