I bought private and 7th hand
So far so good and I'm not looking back it was a brilliant decision

One top hose/ one flat tyre and 4500,miles in under a year

You take your chances

It depends on your mechanical ability and the size of the bank balance

Good Luck

Drive many - you'll find one that looks and feels right..... Don't settle for one that does not click with you.

I've never really understood what the right car choosing me really means. I've seen it many times. Maybe I'm just not sensitive enough?

I agree with you....I think I'm an insensitive so and so. There are a few cars though which I feel have chosen their owner...if an inanimate object ever can...for instance Mr B and Stanley!

A red +4SS with full bumpers added sounds just what you are looking for... Not sure there are any in red though!

No, no, no, I think that in my country a modern convertible with no safety/anti-roll/whatever-its-name bar has no problem but a Morgan would be seen as "risky" drive so, that thing should be mandatory. The cars that I was dreaming with should be this:

with four(five) of this:

and one of this:

Of course, let's not forget this:

Hmmm, this seats are tempting...

Some nice ideas Dhango...and especially the paint scheme. I'm not too sure about the safety aspect of the roll bar though. To be effective it needs to be taller but roll bars on road cars are not always ideal in an accident...you can do an awful lot of damage to your head if you hit the bar if you don't wear a helmet.
