Looked at the car yesterday Adrian. Nice car as is the new Plus4 in their showroom in Ferrari Silver with Mulberry interior and matching body piping.

In response to PeterJ's post I see nothing wrong in 2000 miles a year. For a busy person who perhaps only has a Sunday to drive his/her pride and joy that is quite reasonable. I only average double that per year.

This year you'll probably be struggling to do half that being laid up!

It's about my average over the last three years...less last year but that was due to the move/build and work.

Indeed. I only live 14 miles from work, so it takes a good while to build up the miles, especially when I only go into the office a couple of times a week. I try to drive my Morgan whenever I can, and still only manage 4k a year.

What was the car used for?

A Morgan is a car to drive, in my view: yes it is nice to look at, but surely that is only 20% of the joy of ownership?



Maybe that is all they wanted to, or could do?
Seems a bit arrogant to criticise without knowing the details.
ooo

Each to their own!

There is a 2003 Aero S1 at Borghi that has only 11,200 km. One owner car only just run in. €68,200


PS. I just noticed that they also have a 2012 LHD Plus 4 Super Sport (No. 27) that has only 3,400 km.
