Morgan Seek £1m

Cunning plan to fund Le Mans trip

---

[fizz]

Didn't know that you could get a Plus 8 in 1962 or, that a Plus 8 ever ran at Le Mans...

[PetrolTed]

It's a plus 8 'Commemorative Edition' that celebrates Morgan's entry in '62.

[Beasty]

I'm quite tempted actually. Depends on the dates of Le Mans this year. Also, I could quite do with an Aero 8 to go with the plus8!

Go on Beasty, it's well worth it. I would like to see Morgan at LM next year (and TVR too). Racing for Holland did the same advertising trick this year, so it's not a revolutionary idea. They sold advert spaces on the Dome for quite little money. That included paddock accesss to their box and grand stands for peanuts, if you know what I mean (big, biiiig peanuts). Still, I would go for it if I had the money. It's just once a year and it's the closest you can get to the real LM fealing.

Edited to say I'm off to www.morgan-motor.co.uk now.

Edited to say this...
BTW, LM 2003 is confirmed by the ACO on 14th/15th 2003. It's just half a year away... whoohooo. Merry Christmas, everyone...
