Brian, yes 2 posts. I don't post there often. I have had some emails from one of the moderators so it would seem that the posts have been allowed. Apparently, it had been reported to them that I have been saying that I have been banned from the emog forum. I think someone cannot read my English very well or I never explain myself very well, one or the other.

There was a thread there once suggesting rather strangeley that my Aero was a last minute order, made not long before it went into build. Can't remember what the reason for it was. Could have been something to do with Aero's not selling or something but I can't remember for sure and it is hard to find old messages (compared to here) when you're not used to email boards compared to forums like this.

Of course, the story was a load of bunkum. I announced that I was ordering a series 4 the night that Charles Morgan described the series 4 at the dealers christmas party in 2007 and on January 2nd 2008 at the factory itself sorted the build slot for March 2009. By March 2008 I had switched to an earlier delivery so I could collect the car at the official handover day to start the 100th anniversary on January 2nd.

I'm not waiting Oliver, I want an AeroMax II too.

So does all of this mean the end of the aero.

600 or so cars over 8 years probably isn't a lot of sales, but if the aero does go it will leave a big gap in the MMC range in terms of price.

I wonder where this will leave the aero owners for who £70k was a maximum spend, will they move over to a Trad or move onto another manufacturer.

I was working towards a new aero in few years but with a jump from £70 -£130k it might take a lot longer.

The rumoured price does give some power to those who have said that the aero hasn't made money for MMC, personally I don't believe any company would produce a product at a loss for 8 years.


It does make we wonder if we are going to see MMC become a 'boutique' car manufacturer with lots of nice designs but a new model every year or so. The downside to this is I'm not allowed to collect cars in the same way the missus collects handbags

Quick note for anyone short on storage space for an aeromax when the max2 arrives. I have storage space and its free of charge

Actually it said that your messages had been banned, a subtle difference I suppose. But now that you know that your mails are getting through, hang around there sometimes, plenty of room for more than one Morgan board.

Brian, I have decided not to. The moderators there felt my posts were not appropriate and too aggressive for the group. Rather than make a fuss over not very much I have said my goodbyes.

I notice that this new aero is LHD.

H3

I would agree that a jump of ~60K is a lot if one is considering the purchase of a second/third/fourth car.
On the plus side S4s are now overtaking S2s - sorry btg

Come on Bill we all know what you are doing, you're just trying to talk up S4 prices

OH NO!! PLEASE...if MMC stop producing Aero8, and the next one up is £130k, that'll be me out of it then

POO!

Anybody know what happened to that nice Dark Blue Series III that was for sale earlier in the year, is it ever likely to come on the market again?
