Hello, I am looking to buy a 4/4 sport and have found one from 2009 local to me.
I have already test driven it and looked it over.
It has done about 90k Kms (55k miles) but has a service history
The paint is in ok condition, a bit rough around the edges but I can live with that.
The heated screen is cracked and needs replacing.
There is some surface rust underneath (on the steering rack? please see attachment)
It needs new tyres

Other than that it looks fine. A question I have which will sound stupid is how can I check it has the aluminium wings and not glass fibre replacements?

Is there anything else I should be looking at?

Thank you in advance

Vassilis

Thank you for your reply.
I forgot to mention I live in Italy so I don't have a wide choice of cars to look at, and this is the first one I have ever driven.
It is indeed located at a dealer (not a Morgan dealer) and the price was reasonable.
I didn’t check the history for the kingpins, will do.
Regarding the fiberglass wings? Is there a way to check? I ask because I tried knocking on them with my fist and they made a different sound to the bonnet.
Regarding Talkmorgan I have been waiting for a moderator approval for more than a month now!
