Welcome ianc  A Trad and an Aero, another die-hard Morgan fan  Do tell us what spec you've gone for, and why you choose manual over auto?

Welcome to a new Aero rider  The all important question....sidepipes??  didn't realise there was any REAL question to that, sidepipes and rear difuser  as for the auto question, I borrowed MMC's manual car for a weekend and loved it  , but had been told how much better the auto was. So only thing to do was to borrow their auto the following week  & yup it was a great car and I couldn't fault it BUT it was just lacking that something.It would be fantastic as a long distance grand tourer but it seem to have tamed that raw sportscar of the manual.

... BUT it was just lacking that something.... I think the words your looking for is ...driver involvement..  I didn't know you could borrow MMC's car for a weekend. Hmmm ...
