Our local club had a visit to the Morgan factory a wee while back. Impressive how much is still done by hand, but I still cannot feel that they are worth the money. The new Aeros etc. are pretty impressive though, if you've got around £129,000 IIRC

One of the guys pointed out that most of the cars we saw in the factory were LHD, it was explained that 70% of Morgan's sales are for export! At least we are still exporting something British! (Apart from the BMW engine in the aeros )

It's not a real one without open valve gear. That way you get the proper panda eyes when you take off your goggles.

I have to admit I like the Triking featured in the current copy of CKC.

I was just looking at the triking - quite like it!

Does CKC mention what the kit costs? (as there's no info on the website)

Basic body/chassis kit £2700
Budget build cost from£10000

...according to CKC
