Hello Morganlovers,
Thank you all for your comments and advice. It seems that the majority of you, at least so far, are very pleased with the original system. All except for lightspere who think his sports system is great.
Yes, I am very familiar with the sound of the +8 and I think that is what most of us want to achive. But I also understand that is impossible with a Roadster.
The sound in my present +4 is very nice. In the beginning I had a complete stainless steel system, but changed the silencer to one in mild steel which, in my opinion, had a more darker sound.
Well, on Monday I will be able to listen to a Roadster with the original system and then figure out if that will attract me or not. I will also make a visit to Sarah and Keith on BHM, as they have a Roadster 2008 for sale. I will bring a USB-memory with a lot of pictures of my +4 1959 and see if I can tempt them for an exchange.
Anyway I am very excited to go back to UK again. It is two years since the last time and I have missed it since then.
Arriving to Heathrow on Sunday att 1300 I think I will have time for e few pints before looking for Morgans on Monday and Tuesday. I also hope I will be able to visit one or two more dealers during my stay. But as I now that the traffic is very tough in UK I think it will be in a range of 100-150 miles from London.
Thanks again lads for taking time to comment my questions.

Make sure that you take it beyond 4000revs to hear the V6 music.
Enjoy the trip.

Clag Jay?
They're referring to the fact that diesels smoke a bit...
You should see a cold (as in winter) start on one of these - flames 10ft or so shooting from the exhaust stacks - but don't stand downwind, you'll get a coating of diesel fuel...
