Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Classic Morgans (pre-CX) So, have you driven your Morgan today?

Every day of jumping into the Morgan for a drive is filled with excitement and joy for a fun day out. Except for today. For nearly 4 years, every time in my Morgan has felt like this. It's what I've wanted since I was aged 8 and saw a 4/4 four seater in yellow in the village that I grew up in supplied by Lifes Motors. My father went to marry my mother in a three wheeler driven by his nest friend and best man who was the jeweller inSouthport who had bought a succession of three wheelers off Billy Life so Morgans are in my genes. I am a Morganaholic and always will be. Buying a Morgan is always about buying it heart over head, there is no logic to have gone other than its just going to be bloody good fun.

Today I backed my beautiful 4/4 Sport out of the garage for probably the last time. I set off in the most beautiful sunshine and gave it the beans as was driving behind in the ubiquitous, grey boring BMW and couldn't catch me for dust. Where was I off to today? Off to take it to Lifes for them to try and sell it for us as head had to take over heart for business reasons. Today's drive made filled me with mixed emotions driving through the wind and sunshine. Lovely to be driving it but full of sadness as I felt I was being a traitor and the excecutiioner for being so disloyal as it's been so reliable during our ownership. We've had some superb drives out and adventures and hoped for man more together.

Head says, it needs to be sold, heart says - I hope nobody buys it. Some might say it's only a car, get over yourself, but we build up such a bond with these cars that I do feel like I've given my child away.

Being a Morganaholic I just hope this is a temporary situation.
