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 grin2 I can't see prices doing anything but fall for these tbh.

Richard, I think that just about sums it up

Whilst not as low, I thought this one with only 599 miles was surprisingly seldom used…

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/
