original prices

Here in the U.S. in order to meet emissions standards the Morgan +8 could only be sold with a conversion to propane.

I assume that when the Range Rover V-8 was certified for sale in the U.S. they could use that and dump the propane.

I concur. Government cannot stop regulating. It is a matter of time until collector cars receive their wrath.

We very well might see mass exports of collector cars at bargain prices to unencumbered buyers in China. So it goes.

I?ve never achieved more than about 20mpg - 25mpg in an Elan?2 seat or Plus 2?and a lot less when having a good old thrash about the place.

You should get Strombergs - good for 30-40mpg+...

The UK total price was ?2627 ... Makes for some interesting comparisons. It was a very expensive car in it's day!! Mark

Today that would be: ?24,982.32

WOW!

Probably about what you'd expect to have to pay for an equivalent today. How much is an Elise - anyone know?

You have a good point, but still!
