I-love-it.  Same feeling I had when I saw Violet's advert. No need to see it in metal to decide that was the right vantage for me. Now I just need to do this (well, in my dreams) [video:youtube] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkeaRYrXwV8[/video]

I love that video. They even manage to catch the sounds of the sidepipes from time to time.
The colour combination on the Aero is great, especially the interior with the alcantara.
If I were closer to you I would immediately volunteer to be the driver of the second car for the side by side video!
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

Which car resulted in more smiles?
The Morgan!!
Given the lack of traction control and other electronic stuff the Morgan did well. It isn't about speed, it is about smiles.
Oh yes, and depreciation.
Both cars, 5 years old, how much depreciation??

Smiles? Morgan!
Depreciation? I do not care at all.
Fun? Different leagues. Not comparable. Both super fun. If I look to find Aston things in the Morgan and viceversa I would blame myself more that the cars.

Nevertheless if one of the two should leave home... Try to guess which one will remain.

Merry Xmas and happy new year. In the last weeks I had no chance of smiling with Violet. but today we wend to a quick drive. It's always SO SPECIAL! I cannot get bored of her. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/zf8Pd3N5/A2889514-FAB3-4-BF7-B6-D9-4-D65-A3-F50424-1-201-a.jpg)

I'd love to get the permission to get inside for a few pics.
Anyhow when you "fall" into the aero cockpit, after a while and using other cars, you understand it's all wrong. The pedals position, the windscreen, the space for the arms, the steering wheel, the noise when you close the door, the (lack) of space. Everything. And after 30 sec... as always... you feel in the cosiest, most intimate and most comfortable place in the world. It's amazing the job they did in that car (or in my brain). I cannot get enough of her.

I'd love to get the permission to get inside for a few pics. It would be very cool to do it just before the tree is taken down, I would imagine they must close it to do that? Anyhow when you "fall" into the aero cockpit, after a while and using other cars, you understand it's all wrong. The pedals position, the windscreen, the space for the arms, the steering wheel, the noise when you close the door, the (lack) of space. Everything. And after 30 sec... as always... you feel in the cosiest, most intimate and most comfortable place in the world. It's amazing the job they did in that car (or in my brain). I cannot get enough of her. Ha ha that's funny and all true. The good lady added a few - break a nail on the door "handle". You cannot make or take a phone call with the noise. When you drag your clothing across the dirty wings and doors. When the car is baking hot and the A/C is making no difference. When you realise that anything broken means a set-to for repair and spares......IDGAD it will be spring soon and my bottom needs that position.
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.
