Morning all,

Just to let you know a few weeks ago - I sold my Roadster. In the intervening time - I have looked at various cars and considered an Aero and briefly thought of a new PlusFour (but ultimately don't enjoy 4 cylinder cars).

I must admit - when I was selling the Roadster the PlusSix was top of my list, however, the "hype" around this car has really put me off (and the Insurance Quote!).

I have therefore just purchased a Porsche 911 - it is lovely thing...

I have thoroughly enjoyed the time in the Morgan community and 99% of Morgan owners and forum members are very "true" people - thanks for a great time. I may "lurk" from time to time but will not contribute too often.

Good luck, stay safe and enjoy your cars (whatever). Regards Mark thumbs

Thanks for the heads up on your evolution in thinking relative to enjoying motoring Mark.

I would not care to argue with the statement that "Variety is the spice of life"... (-: It seems there are already Porsche owners and/or fans on here, thus Porsche talk is not forbidden or even frowned upon that I have noticed, and some here might be very interested in your thinking of possible ownership comparisons between two very different automotive concepts..?

Whatever... I hope you enjoy your change in direction.... There is always a road back...if folk ever let you out at the junctions.. laugh2

I think the only Porsche that could bring me as much driving pleasure as my Morgan 4/4 is a 356 Speedster. But I wish you much fun in your 911...

Oh no I forgot about the Morgan junction priority rule....however, I drive a BMW so I am used to sitting for hours at junctions, whilst other road users "stare" into the distance!! swear

Thanks gents love

Mark, just because you have left the Morgan world ( a thing I have done on 3 different occasions but you get pulled back ) it doesn't mean you can't still join in. The chaps on here are really nice and full of interest so do continue to contribute when you feel able. As for buying a Porker, I hope it's a very bright colour as you will never find it otherwise as everyone has one.


Here for a good time not a long time!!
