Rich Welcome! We even had Morgans in the US. There are lots of models to chose from depending on budget, needs and desires. Some locations are also limited but in the UK you should have it all. The folks on TM are very well versed and should be able to steer you in an appropriate direction. This timeline might help http://www.talkmorgan.com/ubbthreads.php/topics/232670/Morgan_Model_Timeline#Post232670 Cheers,

Thanks for the comments - Burgandymog, your narrow body +4 looks really good. Made me think and investigate 'narrow bodies'.
I may have a clearance problem to get on our drive so my understanding that a 4/4 or a narrow body +4 with slightly better ground clearance (correct?) may be better bet for us. Will have to try before I buy as getting a car and finding it won't go up the drive would be slightly embarrassing.

Will have to try before I buy as getting a car and finding it won't go up the drive would be slightly embarrassing. The standard tyres fitted to a 4/4 give 16mm more ground clearance than the standard tyres fitted to a Plus 4. If ordering a new car I'm sure wheel and tyre sizes could be specified to give you maximum ground clearance if you need it. I still have the 195/60 tyres on the Plus 4 and we sometimes touch on the peak of the driveway going to our underground garage. Fitting 195/65 would give 10mm more clearance.

My car has 185/70/15 and is about an inch and a half more ground clearance than standard I believe.

RichB - bear in mind that all current cars have wider rear track than front track - up to five inches, so don't get caught out as I nearly did. Measure across the rear wheels for a true width.

I got caught ordering a trailer to rent, as DW says they have wider rear ends... Maximum Width stated on the MMC Website: 4/4.........1.630m Plus 4......1.720m Roadster..1.720m Plus 8......1.751m And to Compare, Golf 2015....2.027m So they are all "slim", but some more than others!!
