I blame Steve for swopping his Morgan for that lovely MG....it's got me thinking about what I want out of a car. OK. Tell us: what do you want out of a car? Probably a narrow bodied Plus4 Peter....I've never really gelled with the Roadster. I was quite depressed yesterday after realising that it may be a few weeks before I drive a Morgan and that probably explains my comment! I'd love a classic such as the MG to get more involved with the fettling but just haven't got the garage space for it. The toss up was get rid of a car I'm not really enjoying and get a classic or change the Roadster to a more classic feeling Morgan. I'd miss the Morgan world if I left it, I know I would, I don't believe there's another community quite like it!

I have to have more torque than Budster! You have! But you really want the narrower wings, lighter front end and more chuckable car?  Not surprised and if they weren't so much wider than my 4/4 I'd be keeping an eye out too...
