Days of the "double nickel" speed limit. I vaguely remember all cars in USA had speedometers that did not have any markings above 85mph. Can't remember what was on my hire car in Portland Or back in the early 80s. So could be failing memory!  You could well be right Graham but I do know you can buy an after market speedo with a max of 95 MPH. The movie car was modified that way so it could show 88 MPH ( then you were going to see some serious shite......)

The dashboard looks very different from the European 2005 Roadsters.

I followed the bidding. Absolutely insane. But there is a message. The Morgan Trad is alive and well in the U.S.
