I've been thinking again.

1000 new cars a year.
80% exported.
20% UK.
So 200 new UK owners a year - 4 a week if dealer stocks remain constant.

But how many do we see here on TM?
Have we seen 20 new car owners this year? I don't know the answer, but it appears that not many find TM?

I suppose of those 200 there will be people who originally bought a second hand one as their first Morgan and then gone to have the new Morgan experience. I wonder if there is any difference in how long a new Morgan buyer keeps in with the brand if they've never owned one before versus someone who has come via the scondhand route?

I went to the mog meeting in April and no one had heard of TM where we sat . I TRIED to spread the word handed out all the stickers Simon gave me inc some to strangers I met that day . Who we met in Yorkshire and they had not come to the meeting . Have I spotted any on TM "NO" am I going to do it again NO . I feel some want to be spoon fed as well as there arse wiping I am not that kind of person . Once tried is enough for me.

After buying mine I googled to see if there was a forum - rest is history as they say.

Google search for Morgan Forums, my first post on 15 August 2013.
The rest is history.

Strange as it may seem, many people don't spend time on a Forum.
