I use my old tourer with Kent engine ( 165000km) but it is less easy to drive than my 75th anniversary .
The best for me is my superdry always a lot of fun.

Well done Tallyho you now own a unique piece of Morgan history - more importantly it is a great stripped out serious light and agile car, may you enjoy many new adventures.

Thanks for the kind words on the car it’s great fun, and the previous owner was true fan of the marque I’m only 10 miles from the factory so will make sure to pop in!
Planning on going to Holden Dealership Open Day next Saturday!

Liam Here is a picture of the only other Speedster 4/4 they built and I believe it was turned into a limited edition 80th model with the brass work on it and double bonnet straps.

Thanks for the advice - after a few months deliberation I went for a "compromise" and purchased the Tango/Orange "Speedster" 4/4 that was on the for sale section recently.
Look out for me on Herefordshire/Gloucestershire roads, you cannot miss me!
Tally Ho, can we see some pics please ?

Liam, Well done. I saw the stripped out Grey 4/4 speedster in the pic above at the factory ( parked in that spot - same day maybe?) and it planted a "seed" in my head - i had a M3W at the time and thought what a great idea! The Orange one is stunning and I bet great fun.
Now if you can find £300 behind the sofa, you really should consider getting its ECU re-mapped! The few extra BHPs and Torques will amaze you and transform it and i reckon suit the 4/4 speedster so well.........

Hi I was aware of its "unique" background and almost bought it new at Oakmere (but my heart was in M3W land then).
Funny when it turned up on here !
