Hi David, welcome....only advice is (a) Do It and (b) Try other models as well...maybe a +4 or a Roadster? Even if a 4/4 is for you it gives you a decent yardstick. As others will no doubt tell you the car often chooses the driver, its a Morgan thing ;-)

Good luck hunting.

Welcome David. Your head will be swimming with advice from this forum. As Colin has said - go out and try the different models. One WILL find you!

Welcome.

Take your time ...all MOGS are different!

So be sure to choose the one you would have specced from the Factory...or close!!

Hello David,
Welcome, as others have said, the right car will find you. I was only passing the time at Krazy Horse having not long bought a Series 1 "E" type roadster when I saw my current Plus 4. It just sort of beckoned to me and that was it, Moggie number 3!!

Here for a good time not a long time!!

Thanks all.

The nearest I got to a Morgan was in 1976 when I bought a chrome bumper MGB (1974 damask red) with 1000 miles on the clock. It turned out to be useful in the divorce settlement. At the time I seem to remember there was a 5/6 year wait for a Morgan.

Since then I've had SLK, Z3, E class Cab. I'm down to one car now and am considering the Morgan challenge. Thing is the second hand ones are so expensive I may order a new one if the test drive goes ok.

Questions

1 what is the delivery time at present.
2 what is the must have spec. For example is mohair a decent way to spend £1660
3 what is in general the best colour combo.

Any advice considered.

D aka Audiothief
