Morgans have such heightened and individual personalities it is very hard not give them a name

As a designer I believe all objects have 'souls' and we attribute human qualities to objects and things that display personality and no object has more personality than a Morgan of any type or year

I initially refrained from doing it when I first got mine as I thought it silly but very quickly succumbed within only a few weeks

Mine's called Rio

Why Rio ?

Jean Paul Belmondo (Morgan Owner) was in a film called (in English) 'Our Man In Rio' in the 60's which featured a Rosso Red 4 Seater

Also when I could no longer prevent the urge to name the car any longer, it was earlier this year at the very start of the World Cup in Rio

it is strange in that I also didn't like Morgans being abbreviated to 'Mogs' or 'Mog'
As it reminded me of my Grandmas term of inderment to her trusty Morris Minor
But now I refer to 'Rio the Mog' all the time

It's a funny old world but can be a good one
