Hi All
Just a quick note to say hello.
Currently own a 58 frogeye sprite, but seriously considering selling it to fund a Morgan purchase.
Had test drive of a 2 litre +4 the other day, rather liked what I found!
Cheers
Rylan

Rylan I've done quite a few miles in Frogeye and other sprites but I think you will be fine with a Morgan. You might miss the pin-point accuracy of the sprite steering, but torque and hand-built charm will more than compensate. Not to mention the fine folks of Talkmog! However if there is a car to compete with a Morgan in the "put a smile on people's faces" stakes then it is the Frogeye sprite.

Thanks for the replies everyone,
I have no complaints with the frog, but would like something that is more modern in terms of performance with classic looks, that definitely means a Morgan!
There is certainly a fair few cars to choose from, looking most likely to be a 2 litre with the Mazda gearbox for me.
Roger, I am in Gillingham so not far from you at all, small world!

Roger,
I popped over there on Tuesday and tried a few cars for size etc, certainly a positive experience.
Cannot fault the dealer at all, answered all my questions and went above board to assist.
What day of the week do they tend to have the breakfasts?
