A Classic 3.9 Plus8 either of the 2 I have owned, I enjoyed my 4 year sabbatical with the 4/4 Sport but returned to my true love once more. From Connaught Green to Indigo Blue in 13 years sheer enjoyment and the majority of it growling. Nothing else comes near it for me, you are connected to the road in a very real sense and it awakens every sinew. It makes you need a pit stop regularly on rough roads mind  . The only other car I really enjoyed was the Scimitar GTE SE5a which was similarly in touch with the road that was back in 1976/8. Never liked any of the Loti and have tried most other makes within budget and not been taken with them.

Always wanted to try a very early Plus 8 or a an early sixties Plus 4 with the whole TOK/Le Mans performance package. But until then, very happy with the lovely '68 4/4.

If I could only have one Morgan - Current 'Aero' +8. I wouldn't even care about the colour, all the ones I've seen pictures of on this site look fabulous.
The best compromise between the looks of my Trad and the Performance of my 'Max.

Where's Ian when you need him? It's Shooting Brake, not 'Break'!
My dream Morgan?
Aero chassis narrowed by a few inches across the wings, a BMW straight 6 engine, trad body, 16" Minilite style wheels, max 205 section tyres, Trad 2-seater body. BRG with Mulberry leather, black mohair hood.

I've been dying to type that Tim. It's similar to "using the breaks" to slow down

My dream Morgan would be a two seat open-top steam turbine electric hybrid (distilled water is readily available H2 isn't yet), composite chassis with electromagnetic suspension and brakes, all the body work would be brass and copper in a trad style, hard top for winter use nothing fancy a simple bolt and clip on affair!
