From my observations, on RHD cars speedo position depends on the model. Roadsters are to the right, 4/4's and +4's to the left. The speedo on the left is a bit of a pain when using a half tonneau. Another quirk seems to be that the LED which flashes when the car is immobilised doesn't seem to work on 4/4 Sports. Don.

The dash LED isn't connected on 4/4 sports but if you look under the scuttle on passenger side you can see the immobilizer flashing

I find it therapeutic my old retired doctor called in a couple of years ago and asked hows your stress relieve'r , I did not have a clue . The morgan you fool was his reply he was the only one who had worked me out . When the world is on my back I tinker and potter on in the garage with a duster and spanners taking bits off cleaning them and putting them back on and my worrys just flow away . I took the water bottle motor to bits just to polish the inside parts then put it back together , thought afterwards no one can see inside . But I am happy and thats all that counts. Wish I had the time and the money to do a pebble beach but you have to get invited . JTL.

I took the car back to the factory as I thought the immobiliser was not working. You'd have thought that they could have extended the wire to the led on the dash!!

Dafta than I look an old school mate lent me his gold R.R. for my parents gold wedding . He brought it at 8am is a builder trying to stop smoking, cement in the boot, chewing gum stuck on the dash , salted nuts in the carpet , sweet wrappers down the door pockets and across the dash , battery guard in boot under a cement bag . I checked the oil it was almost empty . After 5 litres of oil and 2 days solid work it began to shine . I gave him £100/- for the loan of it asked why do you treat it like a dog and was told its a car nothing else used it after the gold wedding and went through the tyne tunnel but forgot how much it was and handed the chap the wrong amount he said you tight arse bugger you may have a bloody Rolls but you can pay the same as anyone else ( well worth a try ) gave it back to my mate and he claims it had never been that clean in its life told me you are well known for keeping your cars spotless you didnt think I was going to clean it for you did you . He got his R.R. cleaned and checked over with a 100 quid chucked in . Need my brain checking he caught me with my pants down .Still got a laugh out of it I filled a plastic can with petrol went to my mates in Bedlington N/umberland he is touchy about the the people in the area he jumped in quickly lets go I opened the boot and filled the sparkling Rolls with a gallon from the plastic can shouting by hell petrols costly these days everyone was looking out of their windows he got red in the face . You bastard you did that on purpose didnt you . Could not stop laughing , then asked if his wife would get in the back just to see if a Rolls windows would steam up and yes we are still mates .
