Not that big of a finish -- sold for US$33K to a dealer. WOW, that's a new price low for these vehicles. A very disappointing result..... Well with fragile chassis, almost impossible to repair engine (spares) and suspect transmission why would you want one unless you are a sadomasochist  I can't see prices doing anything but fall for these tbh.

Richard, I think that just about sums it up

Used to be as an investment but that ship sailed many years ago now  and I have zero sympathy

^^ 42 miles !! just why do people buy Mogs and never use 'em ? Whilst not as low, I thought this one with only 599 miles was surprisingly seldom used… https://www.carandclassic.com/car/C1572529

My MGB has really only been on the road for 4 months and now has 3200km. That is about 9000km a year which to me seems a sensible amount to use a car. One of the reasons I went for a MGB is a strong local club that has lots of events to join. Maybe once my leg is healed and I can do other stuff like ride a bike I might drive a few less km but for now I am going to all the MGB club events just to drive it. The Morgan Club of Australia has a Long Distance award for owners who drive a Morgan more than 5000km in a club year. To me that seems a good award. More details here.https://www.morganownersclub.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/2024-MOCA-Long-Distance-Award-Application-Form-Rules.pdf Here is a very nice car with an average of 5000km a year https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/2012-morgan-roadster-manual-my12/SSE-AD-15573745/Here is also a nice car but with an average of only about 600km a year https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/2012-morgan-roadster-manual-my12/SSE-AD-15573745/There are more Morgan's for sale in Australia with an average below 1000km than above.https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/morgan/
