Robm3,
I never spoke with the owner of the grey car, but i did find a few pics of it on google with the reg and it is owned by the chap involved with Morgan experience days.
My concern about some of the body work mods looking less than factory finish are probably unfounded, so would not rule this one out.
The white one i was pm'ed about detailing some areas, i will PM you, but i never went to see it.
I looked at a few S1 cars and the S2 at nick whale. the S2 was well prepared and looked good, and some of the old owners on here contacted me to say that it was straight and honest when they sold it. Using google images and cross referencing the milage, reg plates and dates i was able to track all the owners and when they sold it and most importantly how much for the last one advertised for. In short this is a good car, but there were a few minor things that did not sit with the top book cash. It drove well, but only did 10 or so miles in it.
The two S1's i looked at were both poorly presented in my opinion, but by contrast both dealers were a pleasure to talk to and visit. Had the cars been better, i suspect a joy to do business with as well.
I eventually purchased a S1 car privately, known here, 3 previous owners and from i can tell really in top form…….time will tell
