When I was 9 I had a pal in the village ( Houghton on the Hill Leicestershire).

He went to a private school and his dad ran/ owned a factory in Leicester .

They had a double garage and in one half was a Morgan 2 seater.

It was Ivory with red leather and had a bonnet strap.

We used to sit in it ...and take turns in the drivers seat.

Very very occasionally his dad took it out ...once or twice year at a guess.

This was in 1957 ...yes I really am that old!

So it took me 57 years to own one of my own!

Well worth the wait!
