Hi to all, Ludo here, 32yo french, very passionate about cars,currently owning a Z3 coupe 2.8L, a E36 M3 3.0L, an elise S2 111S and a westfield megabusa (and a daily driver but to shameful to be named here). The plan is to sell the elise and the M3 to make room for an aero8 mk1 (leaving in paris' suburd it's hard and expensive to find car space so wife said room has to be made if I want a new toy  ) I have been lurking here for a few months now for info, had an email from Mark at morgan confirming that all aero8s come with certificate of conformity so easy to register in france, just need to sell and it's a go. Ludo

Welcome Ludo. We have a few members who live in Paris and at least one of them has an Aero 8 S1. I myself have owned 2 E46 M3s and all I will say is that you won't miss the M3 after owning an Aero 8

Welcome Ludo. I was in Versailles, Velizy and Boulogne on Monday and Tuesday in my Silver S2, you might have heard the sidepipes It would appear the people of Paris love the Aero, you will have a great time if the reaction I got was anything to go by. I have left a few photographs of it with the authourities on the A1 going north late on Tuesday evening Best wishes with your purchase and the many happy hours that follow.
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

Welcome Ludo!
Like Simon I have experience of the E46 M3 running an SMG version for a year some time ago. Whilst it's a great car you will love the Aero and almost certainly prefer it. They have character in abundance.
I took delivery of my first Morgan - an Aero 8 S4 Auto - last month and find it superb. With side exhausts it sounds like a Spitfire.

it sounds like a Spitfire. Welcome Ludo. Happy Hunting and get those side pipes if that's what they sound Like - fantastic. I have never heard an Aero on full bore throttle. We get the occasional Spitfire overhead here, 'wing waving' to management if she is in the garden throwing her arms about to the pilot.

I live in Rueil Malmaison so you were just up the corner. Unfortunately I am in Mumbaļ at the moment and until end of september at least. as for missing the M3 I sure will not, I intend to sell this car for over a year but I have been too lazy to put it up for sale. I left the elise with a friend who is going to look after the sale so this one should go quickly enough

Hello Ludo
Welcome, my S1 Aero 8 came from Paris but is now in Toulouse. Are you after LHD or RHD?
Cheers
