Thank you Jon, sounds like good offer. But for the moment I have to wait for the outcome with the insurance. With time and patience, everyting will fall into place  By the way… I also consider a +8. What year, did Morgan start using aluminium for the body parts and gavanized frames?

Ivo,
they were optional for a long time. My 97 +4 was aluminium apart from the firewall bulkhead. Later long doors cars I think were always aluminium.

Picked up a bit of turkey this morning, and drove the long way round, so about 30 miles. Pretty busy in Lampeter, but other roads not too bad.
