A number of posters will recall that following a post I put up here the GoMog site featured a comment to which I objected on a number of grounds After a detailed exchange of e-mails with the owner of the car in question we agreed a way forward. Specifically that we would arrive at an agreed form of words which he would then post on Go Mog and I would post on TM. The agreed statement is set out below
"This is a reply to the comment posted on GoMog regarding statements made on 'the 'Talk Morgan' site. I wrote one of those Talk Morgan posts.
I felt the reaction on GoMoG was unnecessarily aggressive. I therefore acknowledge the courtesy shown by the car owner (GoMoG's webmaster) in allowing me this right of reply;
The views and statements I made were based on the best knowledge I had available to me. I gave what I believed was an even handed view of the car as it was the last time I saw it in 2011. I have now learned that the car was waiting for a repair slot at Tudor Motors from a front end accident.I have been told that the repairs were completed. I am happy to acknowledge this and say that the condition of the car should now be judged on the state it is today.
There is no great mystery as to how or where I have seen it, the car in question is stored at a dealer who does my Morgan work on a regular basis and of whom we both have a very high opinion. For at least one extended period my own car was parked next to it in that dealer's garage, though, in fact, we have never met!
I wish him well in the sale of his car"
