Now 52- first was bought after my wife hired one for my 40 th birthday. Liked the experience so much that when I dropped the car off- she bought one off the forecourt.

I think she may have regretted that rashness over the last 12 years.

I haven't .

Bought a Aero 8 Mk3 at 28/29, sold it for a Gallardo Superleggera at 30, regretted selling the Morgan and bought a SuperSports at 33. However, with both the Lamborghini and Morgan being white, the continual washing is aging me prematurely. frown

I had to double take - I thought at first you stated he was aged 98 !!!!
That would be something

Bought my first mog (1937 4/4)in 1966,made a silly mistake and sold it for an MGB (regretted it after 6 months) without one for 4years due to rise in prices, Since then have had 5 more Morgans and very happy.45 years of happy ownership.

I wanted one in 1977 but had to wait until 2013 when I was 61.

Mortgages, kids, business start-up all ate up time and money.

Between 1968 and 2012 I amused myself with 2 wheeled machines before giving up. Getting "The Morgan I Always Wanted" was the co-pilots idea. I'm therefore eternally in her debt....!

dreamed of one some 20 years ago ...but for some reasons had always other "toy" cars..untill last year , participating some historic rallys with our '70 BMW CS , had seen again a few Morgans... and the real interest was alive.
By coincidence GTN #5 came up for sale at a friends shop , so there we are at 58.

A great new experience , just love driving that car !

FYI, Bill Button is from Seattle, Washington State, USA. He drove his Plus 4 4 Place (TR Engine) down from Seattle to Orlando, Florida, in 2011 for the Winter Park Concours, and then to go to the Florida Keys (Key West, etc.) with a Morgan convoy.

Google says that trip is some 3,500 miles. Then when we finished, he drove the Morgan back to Seattle. He brought along his girl friend for the trip. He was 85 at the time. He is planning an Alaska trip at the moment but not in the Morgan.

We can only hope . . .

Cheers,


Mark
