I do like them. Thanks for sharing. We followed a Pail Blue one along the M25 Motorway a couple of years ago. They do look small, even viewed from a Morgan Roadster.

Very pretty cars. Greatly underrated in the 60's.

From the front they look lovely but from the side the roofline is too bubble like. It would look much better extended further back towards the rear of the car with a consequent squaring off of the top of the side windows which, rounded as they are, accentuate the bubble look.
It is a shame they did not do better and continue as an alternate version of the Plus 4.

There are two that I know of out here in California, one is owned by John and Lynn Willburn and they keep it honest, drive it on runs and rallyes, will see it again soon for MogWest in Cambria (central coast, near Hearst Castle) two weeks away. The other has undergone restoration by a well known Morgan restorer here (Pierre Brun), owned since new by a couple in the San Francisco Bay Area. They were very active with it for most of their younger lives, retired it for a time, now bringing it back to all its glory.
I was in high school when I saw the photo promoting the London Auto Show debut, I didn't know what it was, but I fell in love with it, period. Now I get to go on runs with at least one. Btw, if anyone is in need of the fibreglass rear corners, I have a NOS set available.
