Yesterday, I purchased a 2014 M3W, Brooklands edition from Morgan West in Los Angeles. This coming week it should be loaded onto a truck heading toward Seattle. Ideally, it won't lose its way. This would be my first Morgan -- albeit, a non-traditional one. My first car was a 1959 MGA that had been abandoned at a garage where I worked as a mechanic. I bought it from the bank that had a lien on the title. Restored it. Drove it for several years, but finally decided that no matter what I did to enhance the engine, I would still be blown off the road by any Austin Healey 3000. So, I sold the MGA and bought a 1965 Austin Healy 3000 Mk III. Was ecstatic to have rollup windows. And so it went for many years, owning mostly European cars (largely German; some Italian). I live on an island near Seattle with great roads winding around the edge and many rural roads nearby. Looking forward to the M3W. James

Welcome to TM James. Your mog looks in great condition, is it a brooklands model as the exhaust would suggest.
