I have had a look at some of the old conversations between this guy and some of the regulars on TM. It makes for interesting reading, but the word " Tosser" comes to mind quite often
I hope I'm not offending any of the moderators here, but since I was one of the posters on TM and it was at least in part my post which seemed to be objected to, I'm putting up a copy of the reply I sent to GoMog. I think- and hope- it's self explanatory.
Any owners' community ( especially a small one like ours) needs two things: genuine enthusiasm for the marque and second what I might call a sense of inclusive honesty ie a forum where we can exchange information and put forward views in a constructive way. I hope I always do that. I might not always agree with others views and they might not agree with mine but it's a mutual respect thing which is important.
Anyway, here follows my deathless prose ( no response from GoMog as yet) I hope this brings this matter to a conclusion ( not least because the weather forecast is good and I want to drive my car, not argue about it):
"This is very much a reply to the long and detailed comment posted on GoMog regarding statements made on ‘another Morgan site.’
In the interests of openness and fair play, I’m happy to say that I was the writer of those comments and they were based on the best knowledge I had available to me. I had hoped that my comments would be seen in the balanced way in which they were given. Specifically, I qualified my statements by saying early on that ‘if’ the car was the one I had in mind, then my comments were as follows. I then went on to give what I believe was an even handed view of the car as it was the last time I saw it. If the car advertised was the car in question then there is no great mystery as to how or where I have seen it: at a dealers which I use for my Morgan work on a regular basis and of whom I- as I assume does the putative seller- have a very high opinion. Again, if the car I refer to is that same car, it is not surprising that I have seen it on many occasions. For at least one extended period my own car was parked next to it in that dealer’s garage!
I think what really saddens me about the GoMog post is the generally aggressive stance it takes. Surely, the whole idea when confronted with a reasonable view is to respond in similar terms. Still, whatever floats your boat I suppose
