...a market for £100k cars...
All cars are a waste of money really, a Dacia Sandero at £6k would do everything I need, but you don’t get a free watch and what would you do with the other £96k? Well, you've just gained £2k in interest  However, the Sandero will only be worth £3k, if you are lucky, when you drive it off the forecourt. And, it will keep going down...

Personally, I loathe the "magic of modern marketing". Instead of bribing potential customers with trinkets intended to swaddle the ego in a luxurious feeling of superiority to the masses, Morgan should simply concentrate on building a car that's fun to own and drive. That is their true heritage.
regards,
Phil Phil. I agree with you on this one.  So do I!!

So they are expensive but hold their value - which according to my man maths makes it free motoring. It passes the Nagivator maths test too which made the approval process painless.

I really like the amber fog/spot lights. Especially the clean look, not being mounted on bumper or overrider mount.
Curious how these are fitted and whether that can be done as a retrofit with some nice amber Marchal or Cibie lights. (at reasonable costs)
Has anyone seen a close up picture of this?

Glorious car, but from both a financial and a driving skill viewpoint, I’ll stick to my 4/4.

My 4/4 allows me to really enjoy driving without scaring myself witless. I managed to achieve the latter when I first drove a 3.0 Roadster on slightly damp roads!

Couldn't agree more..
I always grimace when Morgan introduce the 4/4 as "Morgan's Entry Level Car". It's far too good for that.

This, definitely. The 4/4 is my perfect Morgan. Affordable, fun, and you can (ab)use it with confidence it's not going to bite you too badly if it all goes Pete Tong.

It's a typical marketing mans statement - totally devoid of any feelings for the customer to whom ownership of a 4/4 is the realisation of a dream/ambition.
I would say that 4/4 ownership far exceeds all the other variants so they should think about it.
Some of us are fortunate enough to move up the range but not everyone has the desire to.
