So we can confirm that it is the MMC standard hood for that model of 4 seater. It may be worth checking the sealing rubbers in the hood rail, the hood rail should rotate and sit such that the hooks are securely gripping the pins, if the rail doesn't sit correctly it may not be positioned to grip the pin. I guess the other problem could be a lack of tension in the hood and it is not pulling hard enough on the hood rail to secure it to the pin.

They are a good car, a friend of mine has the motor show car from the initial launch and took the family everywhere in it. Another friend has the brochure car. The main problem I had was the time taken to erect the hood. I would ignore rain clouds until the precipitation got serious, SWMBO would keep telling me to stop and erect the hood, but as the hood erection process needed significant investment of time I would ignore the advice until we were getting seriously wet.

I think a good Morgan agent with a trim shop should be able to sort it, maybe someone like Allon Whites. I guess timing depends on what Boris says on Sunday.
