So how is it all going MichaelP with the new MOG?
We're very happy with our Morgan
In February we made a short visit to the factory and saw our finished car. It was delivered on time and after a few modifications by our dealer we took it over in mid-March.
Since then we have been on the road a lot
(almost 5,000 km to date). It's been a lot of little trips, not long-distance travel.
From today's point of view we would not change the chosen specification. We are particularly pleased with the choice of colour: you can hardly see any dirt.
Of course, there were a few little things where improvements were necessary: The
propshaft hit on bumps , a headrest was crooked (see pic), a side mirror was wrong (flat instead of convex), the driver's door has ground on the chassis, slight leakage in the area of the windscreen wipers.
Everything has been fixed and we enjoy every mile.
There are still points where we are looking for improvements or solutions (e.g. the carrier makes impressions on the rear window when the easy up hood is open). But these are little things that do not spoil the joy of driving.
The other experiences are probably similar to those of other Morgan owners:
People smile when you drive by.
When a conversation arises, the beautiful car is admired first and then asked how old it is. If you then answer that it is completely new, unbelieving amazement follows.
When you stop at red traffic lights or in traffic jams, a smartphone is often pulled out and a photo taken in the vehicle behind you. This happens especially often when we have our dog with us, who always wears glasses.
In summary: It was a very good decision for us to buy a Morgan.
