The glue isn t good enough, and some of the aluminium plates were twisted.

Even windows down, there isn t over pressure in the cabin

Just made me smile I lost a very good mate back in 1975 .I went to the church in the Lancia Fulvia parked it on the vicars drive in front of his garage . Came out of the church and it refused to start . Jumped a taxi with pals and off to the crem . When we returned the vicar could not get his car out and all of his m/ings work had to be cancelled . He was not a happy chap . So it happens to us all I had visions of my mate rolling with laughter. joy

The issue is one of heritage, the max really wants to be an aero, hence the throwing of the rear windows and side window problems. Simple solution, remove the roof hide

At last count there were 7 of the 15-16 remaining RHD Aeromax owners on the site and 6 LHD owners. There may be others (we have so many lurkers) but these are the ones who have posted or PM'd me questions.

As has been said above, despite being a limited edition, it shares the DNA of the Aero 8 S4 and the Aero SS; therefore, all of that discussion is relevant and you are 'qualified' to jump in with opinion and conjecture (even if you weren't we have plenty of arm chair experts on the site cozychair grin2 and their opinions are always voiced and welcomed).

Site conversation tends to be effected by the season, in the winter we spend more time talking about other subjects and projects relating to cars (as well as moaning about not being able to enjoy them properly), come Spring this changes and conversations turn to meets, racing, drives out, etc. The summer is much the same unless we have bad weather at which point the discussion returns to winter topics grin2

Enjoy the site and your Morgan.

Last time I checked the DVLA were showing 15 registered with one SORN. That would mean circa 10 have left the UK.
