Think of it as an alternative investment strategy.

It wouldn't get approved by the FD in this house but yours may be more "sensible".

Peter,

if you have a well invested pension pot growing at 5% plus then buying the Plus 8 makes no sense as an investment.

But if you have to take a tax free lump sum that you have no immediate use for, or if you have cash in low yield accounts, then it is a safe place for your money. You will not lose, you might make a small return over 5 years.

More importantly you will own one of the best Morgan's ever made (or possibly ever likely to be made) and the return in smiles, grins and happy days will be massive.

Had a boring day at the office yesterday - so got home- got in the Speedster and immediately forgot about a lot.

The side pipes blared as I blasted up and down the gear box- and any thought of anything else disappeared as I concentrated on the drive.

Sod the pension!
