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

Minus 2 when I went to the garage this morning. The pug has a tyre slowly deflating so the cover comes off the mog. Almost six weeks since it has been started due to travels down-under but a couple of days ago I did give the battery a few hours on the charger. I need to get to the airfield so I take care with the choke and throttle settings. One third choke, three pumps on the throttle. It turns rather slowly, as though that 20-50 mineral oil has the consistency of cold molasses. Which it does. But at about the sixth turn it fires and settles down just as it always does. The drive is top down and no side screens and my extremities are not sufficiently protected i.e. I need woolier socks, better gloves and a woolier wooly hat. But people smile and laugh and I know there is more to it than just driving. The season has been extended and the mog is transformational.
