Who said there was a problem?

I very much doubt that many purchasers of either (fantastic) car was seriously considering the other.

I really would.... I very seriously considered a Morgan, at the time I was looking to sell my TVR....

Morgan, Aston, Morgan, Aston.......it was a close call and could have gone either way.... And even now, I still look at them as a probable purchase when I next change brand

Right now I am thinking of an older Morgan Plus 8 to run along beside the Aston as my 'classic'

Love Morgans, Le Mans winning history from the last proper crackpot car maker we have

Drove one of these at last Morgan open day and absolutely loved it. Then test drove the Plus 8 and came away thinking I wouldn't buy one at half the price. Each to their own I suppose

Had another tour of the Morgan factory in Malvern Link, last week, apparently they are selling the Aero Supersports as fast as they can make them, even at £130,000+.....

Full order book for three wheelers too, saw loads on the production line with sold tags on...

What a great review. Morgan sounds thundery and Aston sounds more roary. Would take the Morgan out of the two.

Can't be mine then Boshers!

The M3W is one of the most enjoyable cars I've owned, you should test drive one.

That I like
We considered an Aero before we bought the Vantage
