"Oh no! I have 100k but dont know what car to buy!" I would love to be in the same boat.

Not everyone's cup of tea but something I couldn't be without.

These videos are worth a look (of the Coupe, essentially a Supersports without the £30k removable roof option!)

The attention any Aero model (8, 'Max, SuperSports or Coupe) gets is just silly but always positive, unlike that with Italian supercars...

Whatever car you get, enjoy the search, there's some amazing machinery out there for that money. yes
'Modern' Morgans are lovely. I love the look. I test drove one a while ago but after test drive I felt like doing any Eurotrip in one would be of big challenge for even a youngster. I've done London - Genoa type of mileage in one day few times in my 360 without big issues (maybe thanks to he fact I was under 30 at the time...lol)
Morgan Aero would make nice weekend drive for an hr or two but not much longer than that
Also technology wise I think it is pretty dated i.e. it feels dated but not old school like driving old F car if you know what I mean. So the drive is rather disappointing. I still love the looks though. Shame Wiesmann is only made for euro market, I have never seen one in the UK (also I heard they've gone bust) - MF4/MF5 roadster would be lovely option

I doubt many would find AP Racing brakes, a modern BMW V8, Exige-esque weight and an aluminium tub old or disappointing. The chassis has been very successful in competition too, with GT3 wins and a finish at Le Mans - and I can assure you it goes as well across Europe as it does around a track.
