Baby's got new eyes
I picked her up from Borghi today after her spring service and there she was with 2 new "eyes" on top of her front wings. Now she looks like a proper Morgan. Another job that was done was the fitting of two extra zips to the tonneau cover. This allows the side sections to be folded and tucked behind the seats leaving a much neater cover for the easy-up hood and at the same time leaving a much freer run for the seatbelts. Finally some electrical work was done. The fog/spots only come on with high beam; not what you want for fog lights but perfect for night driving lights. They can still be turned of with a switch. A beeper (annoying thing)has been installed so that if I turn off the ignition with the lights on I am warned (no more flat batteries). Also the relays for the aircon have no been correctly mounted in line with the other relays up under the dash. Impossible to get at but also impossible to photograph. At least I should have no more problems with them. More information on this at my other thread at http://www.talkmorgan.com/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showflat/Number/249227/

Peter - can't believe it's been so many years since you've picked up your +4! I fell in love with your color scheme(and geographical locale) and have really enjoyed seeing you enjoy it! Your small improvements to the car have been great to watch as well. How are the Omex TB's treating you?

Peter, I'm impressed with your tonneau. I'm wondering about asking Williams to modify mine in the same way. The standard tonneau is such a pain to stow away without fouling the seat belts....even with Dave Ws guide to how to fold!

How are the Omex TB's treating you? Great thanks. Once they really cut in at about 4,000 rpm the acceleration to the red line is fantastic. Really brings out the hooligan in me  Fuel economy on a trip, if I don't drive too wildly, has remained about the same. I have quite enjoyed the challenge of tuning the calibration but now I need to get it on a rolling road to do the final touches.
