Just caught up on this Adrian. Sorry to hear of your decision but I quite understand it. Morgan ownership has many positive points but can also have its stress and frustration.
Do keep in touch and maybe we can meet again on one of our trips. The UK is out this year but maybe next year.

Sorry to hear you're "going" Adrian. But at the end of the day, it's just a plaything. Nobody NEEDS an Aero 8, we WANT one. If you don't want one anymore, get something else. Even in my short period of ownership I can't deny it's been trying sometimes dealing with the issues that come up.
I've said before, If you're looking for something like a Porsche........you should probably buy a Porsche !
Best of luck.

I can't say I wasn't surprised to hear the news, but nothing is forever and life changes make us all look at our priorties anew.
I hope you don't get too bored with the Merc, or maybe that is the idea and you will be starting other, new stuff in your life?
Do keep in touch with us all, the local crowd especially, I dare say you will find us having breakfast at Powderham on the last Saturday of the month, for a long time to come.
We all wish you the best in whatever you both do next.

Sorry to hear you are leaving Morgan ownership but nothing is for ever and it seems eminently sensible (as opposed to Morgan ownership which is anything other than sensible) given your upcoming projects
It was great to meet you at TOTH and stick around, if only to let us know about your hi-fi choices
I'll always remember your RED MORGAN, RED SETTER and It's fishy inspiration RED MORGAN, RED SNAPPER

Adrian, sorry to hear you are moving on from Morgan, i agree with Steve, Talk Morgan is as much or more about people than the cars. Keep posting, keep in touch and all the best. Well they allow me on here Adrian and I have never even had a Morgan!

Young Adrian was at my house this morning, drinking tea and looking very well - in fact, no different to when he owned a Morgan. I've seen pictures of his new SL, very nice.

Adrian,
Sorry to hear you have moved on, it was always helpful having plenty of S1 owners on this site. "A problem shared is a problem halfed", perhaps the new owner of Rosie wll visit.
The SL does sound a great alternative, one of our Morgan group owners has one and to be fair does take it on longer journies with the Mercedes owners.
Best wishes.
