Live the dream, Mr Toad!  Long ago, before I sold my BV8, I was taken out in an oldish Plus 8 with aero screens as a taster. It was a warm summers day and it was quite an experience. But not all days are warm and summery so I don't crave aero screens, and getting that past MrsW would be impossible. But she's happy without a roof for most of the time, which is good. I'm not saying for one minute I'm going to buy one Crikey I've got a 4 seater for the family to enjoy but if I was single without kids or had a wife who would wear the goggles, this would be the car I'd be tearing it up in come rain or shine

It's a bit like the other girlfriend/wife comparison....

Have to say I can't even get the side screens off when  comes out, even if there was a Dubai heatwave going on. Everybody knows I'm out in the car alone when the side screens are off so no chance for me getting the aero screens even though I would like to try one! I know what you mean I've come to realise it's a hair thing I took the Morgan into Whitby from our holiday cottage in Staithes last Saturday with two of our best friends as car companions. Girls in the back, boys in the front, (miniature Yorkshire Terrier in the back as well) no side screens I suggested head scarves for the girls which was declined but when we got back after the day both girls spent a couple of hours untangling their hair and glamming up for dinner

There's plenty of people prepared to buy a 3 wheeler for the same money so I think it's great they'll have a choice of 3 or 4 wheels. I'd have considered it a few months back. I'd want roll hoops though.

Are they going to leave the carpets out so that they don't get wet?
Looking for another Morgan!

Based on recent MMC activity, what is the betting that screen washers will be fitted as standard?

The idea of a 4/4 (not-so)Speedster is a good one and will prove attractive to some and give the model a boost. The puzzling bit is why Morgan didn't launch it properly rather than leaving it to distribution to sell it as 'revising their pricing policy'?
