I believe that Morgan is not so much affected by any economic ups and downs. People buy a Morgan because they fell in love with the car. And they will buy it when they have saved up their pennies.
I think the 4/4 is a real bargain. When I saw the car first time on the Geneva show I new I want one. For sure the 100-year anniversary plaque on my dash board is an additional bonus.
The the only effect from the economic recession was that in 2009 the Pound was very, very week against the Swiss Franc. I know at least 7 people who have opted to import the car directly from the UK. Including me. That saved a lot of money.
Basilisk I hope that your 4/4 continues to bring you a lot of pleasure and happiness.
I have to say my 4/4 does even though I don't drive it enough! Just walking into my garage and seeing it is a huge lift to my spirits and the cause for a big smile. On sunny days on the Island it is wonderful to get it out, take in the beautiful scenery and the fresh air.
Since I bought the car what amazes me in a very positive way is how other people respond to it - total strangers getting into conversation, making new friends from parking outside a cafe, being photographed and the very nice people you meet who own Morgans. Goodness a young blonde lady in one of those BMW 4 X 4's even stopped to let me out!!!! I think however it may have been the Moggie not me that she was admiring.....
