Well done Simon..
we 4/4 owners are a special breed...or so my probation officer says !!!!
Now the fun part,learning about and getting to know you car.
After about 6 months you WILL want to modify/improve to make the car your own,
Talk Morgan is the best place to learn about your car and its quirks and potential...so far no nutters on the Forum ( Eric maybe the exception...I reserve judgement)
After a few thousand miles it will settle down then drive it like you stole it!!!

Congratulations Simon. I won't be driving her until you've made my valence! Berrybrook should be placing an order next week once they've measured!

They do look quite attractive in that bare brushed aluminium finish. I wonder if its possible to order a car like that with simply a clear lacquer over the bodywork. I think there's an option for polished aluminium in the price list, which is incredibly expensive. I would imagine you could negotiate a different finish, for a similar huge sum of money!

I've seen one car last year leave the factory in an unpainted and unpolished state. Not sure what was planned for it.

They are going to be a nightmare to keep clean surely.

When BHM did a three wheeler in polished aluminium I recall that they had the polishing done after delivery.
Presumably cheaper from the factory without paint, but nowhere to hide the slightest imperfection when polished.
