I'm looking to add to my small collection of cars and think this looks "interesting" - in the past I owned a standard 4/4 runabout and quite enjoyed it but from the road tests I've found on line this looks more "hard core"!

http://www.williamsautomobiles.com/used/morgan/plu...

amongst other things I have a supercharged Elise, a "Hot Rod" Datsun 240Z and a 911 however I'm keen to have a traditional style open top sportscar and fancy something a little different !

However it's about five hours drive from home so a ten hour round trip to go and have a look/test drive. Does anyone own or have any experience of the APR4 - how do they drive, are they worth it, do you think they'll hold their value long term ???? etc, etc

Thanks

Don't have any direct experience of ARP4 but Williams have a good reputation. I would suggest asking your questions on talkmorgan.com there's a few owners on there.
Good luck with it, they do sound like good toys.

Thanks very much, I'd never heard of "Talk Morgan" - so have just registered. Your European road trip looks fantastic - do you have a map with the route indicated on it ? How many miles did you do in total ?

Best Wishes

You're welcome Steve. TalkMorgan is a pretty damn good forum, there's a lot of useful stuff buried away inside it.
The Europe trip was excellent, ended up hitting 4001 miles as I got back into the lock-up, as for the map, technically I do have a map of it all but it's currently locked up inside the Garmin software on my desktop at home so it's going to be a wee while till I can get it out into some sort of useable format.
Cheers

Some eagle eyed talkmorgan member has found that a person with ident SNG45
is already a member of having joined in 2010.

Could it be you are already a member?

I certainly can't remember joining Talk Morgan previously even though I owned a 4/4 about ten years ago, although I could be wrong. My new application has now been verified so I've been able to access the site. Thanks.
