Yeah...I sold my 2013 M3W about 8 months ago...it's the kind of car you date - but don't marry.
Bought a 1954 Austin Healey 100 (BN1)...and I've never looked back. The car is simple, I can do all my own maintenance and repairs, but in a pinch there are tons of British car shops that can help out with more complex problems. The car will never lose much value - it may even appreciate modestly...
The BN1 is just as much fun to drive as the Morgan was.
The M3W just isn't a very good value proposition...find a "real" classic and learn the car, start working on it yourself, and you won't miss the M3W one bit. Guess it takes all kinds. I've had pretty much every car and bike in existence , including an AH 3000 and NOTHING brings me the smiles and joy of my M3W. Value, shmaule... the M3W simply kicks ass. Wouldn't trade it for your Healey, a McClaren, Ford GT, LaFerrari, Pontiac Aztec... I might trade for a Mclaren or Ferrari, but only so that I could sell it and buy more M3Ws. I need a color for each mood.

Exactly. That's why I said money aside.

Thanks for the well wishes guys. I'll check in from time to time to see what new in the Morgan world. For now, I leave you with this parting gift....... Cheer gents, https://youtu.be/P7yHEf5RySE

Great swivelling head lights, why did MMC not think of that. Granted they would be unsprung but compared to the steel mud guards would not weigh much.

Excellent clip - haven't seen it in a while; thanks for posting.
Mind you, I suspect that Homer would struggle to fit into a 3 wheeler
