I will want £60k for my 2014 Plus 8 when it goes on sale in the spring.
I think that is realistic, given it has 45k miles. High for a Morgan, nothing for a BMW.

Pretty poor set of photos for a £130k car! Says that its being sold by Brands Hatch Morgan although its not yet on their website (under the coming soon section) and no more photos there either.
Cheers, Paul

I love it, but the production Max wheels look better, and that rear number plate girder???

I notice the Williams Aero Supersport at £150k is no longer showing on the website.
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

and that rear number plate girder??? That is supercool. Much better than the production one. Interesting is that it seems to have the dash and the engine of the Series 2.

200,000 chf would make it £180,000 give or take - which is a bargain, compared to the others around
(all things are relative, right?!)

Yes and quite the early 911 collection around it. At the dealer? and that rear number plate girder??? That is supercool. Much better than the production one. Interesting is that it seems to have the dash and the engine of the Series 2. It does look like an S2 interior, the door cards and handles, fly off handbrake and layout also. Quite an interior colour! Can't stop thinking of Colemans now. Beef joint for dinner I think. I like the style of the rear number plate holder but perhaps a little lighter in execution. Remarkable the differences between this unique car and the production AeroMax's. On the production car. rear windows shrunk rear morgan badge, it would have been nice to retain this. rear lights appear to be more back and down slightly There are a few signs it needs a touch of love. Ding in the rear panel next to the passengers side rear light. I know from experience that backing in is fraught as you cannot see anything. I am definitely going to hook up a rear camera to the new Audio. Slightly nervous of that rear drivers side window as the top does not look flush. Amazing considering it was effectively a one off. Some of the changes made for the production models did see an improvement but it looks quite beautiful. It will be interesting to see where it turns up. I hope it does not disappear into a hidden collectors garage.

Sorry a bit late to the party.
BMW V10 engine has an Achilles heel in that it's rod bearings fail. The journal is quite narrow and the oil just too thin at high temps to work. It is not a game over issue if treated as preventative maintenance, but it will either be engine out or all the floor and substructures removed....depending on how it is mounted in the car.....either way a reasonable bill......but then piece of mind for a good number of years.
