Has a lot to Say!
I think this is my favourite 80th 4/4

The 80th 4/4 is a very nice car .Im not a green person as many Mog owners are but this does look spot on .

If it were royal blue with black wings and had black wheel nuts and wheels...WOW!!

Like others I'm not a green car person, but whilst I hate the traditional over bonnet straps I love the new ones to the point I'm going to see if it is possible to have them fitted to Tarka!

Me too.

With those wheels I'd like 3 eared spinners.

I like the bonnet straps but the brass wheel nuts are not my cup of tea.

I love the colour combination and the bonnet straps. The wheels I find maybe not so convincing, personally I'd prefer wires painted the same colour as the wings with 2-eared spinners. Also I'm a grubby little tyke so I'd prefer darker leather.

But then again, the disc wheels are a much more practical ownership proposition, and the light leather looks very classy..

I am sure its owner will be delighted with it, it's a cracking looking car.

PJ - you can't 'hate' bonnet straps. Hahahahaha smile

I rather like a strap on. Er, that sounds entirely wrong. Having driven my Roadster at over 100 leptons and seen the bonnets start to lift, I also think they're practical too.

As to the 80th 4/4, I think it looks gorgeous. I can see how it would be possible to become a serial Morgan owner! My only gripe is the rear number plate arrangement - I do wish MMC could come up with a better solution, it looks awful stuck up like that.
