After announcing my "First Drive" (See Classic Forum 29th July)of a Morgan, and taking much of the advice offered in order to gain "her indoors" approval, I have at last bought a Morgan!
Although based in Cheshire, I was visiting my son in Sevenoaks at the weekend and felt it only courteous to call in at Brands Hatch Morgan. Fast forward to next Thursday and I pick up my 2005 55 Reg Morgan Plus 4 in Jaguar Crimson Imperial Red.
It is a real beaut - and I can't wait to get my hands on it and enjoy the 200 mile drive home (avoiding as many motorways as possible.
Will post some pictures once I have it (and have mastered the technique). Looking forward to years of fun.

Thanks, Ma. Hope your search is successful. You will have seen on the Forum that they say the car will find you, well I think that is true. I was really considering a new one for the middle of next year, although I had been looking on the second hand market as well. When I found this one, I just fell for it, and especially as it has every extra I could have wished for. Can't wait......

The car found you and from the sound of it a real beauty.
Just think how much you saved over buying a new one!!
