Maybe it's just me, but I noticed a nice little visual effect when flipping through the pictures on the Williams website. If you start with the 3/4 front view and call that Picture one, then flip through, picture 7 is a straight sideways profile shot. Now go to Pic 8, a view of the front seats, and then flick to Pic 9. It looks for all the word like the car has got three rows of seats as the pictures transition so neatly together.
But as I said, maybe it's just the way my eyes work. Either way, it's a gorgeous car!
 Maybe it’s the one and only Morgan 6 seater ! Did you spot the wonky rear number plate and missing rear offside rear reflector ?

Thanks everyone for your good wishes and nice comments on the Morgan
If anyone had told me even two weeks ago that I would be buying a light blue Roadster, I would have laughed it away as nonsense but it’s funny how things develop
Although I absolutely love my current Morgan and have loved every minute of the three and half years of this fabulous Morgan world I share with you lot, I have been saving up and casually looking out for a low mileage, post 2005 4 seater, mainly for the design of the hood.
I missed out on a Plus 4 4 Seater, the one that was advertised in the back of this months Miss-sell-ell-ell-nanny which was really well priced and that prompted more looking and considering.
When I rang Williams Monday they told me it was on first refusal to someone who very keen but just last night they told me the buyer had pulled out which probably hastened the decision
I bought my first and loved Morgan unseen on EBay and regret nothing so I can’t think I will regret this one

I've just taken a look on the Williams website.
A stunning machine, glorious colour.
The interior I like, a lot, and especially the after market dashboard with instruments that coordinate with the leather, plus the clock and little locker on the right. Is it from MK Germany or Borghi in Italy?
Enjoy, as you deserve to do.

Lindon at Williams told me the dash was a special order from the factory and that it cost an extra £3K !! Williams ordered it new for a client who was a friend of the family who sadly died recently, I think he said his name was Ralph although he sold it again through Williams a couple of years ago I will find out a bit more about it in the next few days

Or would you prefer Morris Marina Pageant Blue? Maybe it was looking at all those vintage racing Bugatti’s on the stand next to MSCC’s stand at the NEC on Sunday that influenced it By my eye it looks the same blue as MMC 11, the racing Plus 8 in MMC’s Museum
