I'm with you Keith, every criticism of the trad Morgan is just why I love them, if I wanted comfort and non involving driving I would have possibly bought an MX5.
The CX has an involving ride all right, just doesn't crash as much as a trad on uneven surfaces. I actually preferred the old lever arm rear suspension of the earlier 4/4 like my '85 4/4, with much higher ride and greater ground clearance, a little more bouncy on undulating roads, much lighter car than the later trads and that was a great driving and more involving compared to my later heavier more powerful trads.I'm sure owners of the much earlier cars will say exactly the same thing about my '85 4/4 had gone soft and not as involving as their cars.
I'm just grateful I can keep enjoying a Morgan, and as much as I enjoyed my first Morgan. back in the 80's.....I doubt I could get in it (easily) these days, and would only savour it for much shorter journey's than I currently undertake. Out shopping today spent half an hour chatting with the Halford staff as they spotted it in the car park..........people just love to see them and I feel lucky to own one.
