After admiring this beautiful car for many years and spending the past 18 months actively looking for the right one, I have just purchased a 1993 Morgan Plus 8. I bought it in the UK and will have it shipped to Houston, Texas.

Wonderful to meet so many like-minded folks on this forum and I look forward to browsing through to get answers to many of my ‘newbie’ questions!

Best wishes,
David

Another welcome to TM and look forward to seeing pics of your car as and when David. Is it a left hand drive as they occasionally pop up for sale in the UK?

@HeadlessBlue. I have been a massive ITFC fan for 50 years. After purchasing the car last week in the midlands I drove to Ipswich to visit family and had to pay homage to the hallowed turf! My stay was fleeting since I had to return to Texas. The car will be shipped to Houston next week.
Looking forward to a great season in the Championship!
