I don't understand the logic either.

Here there is an age limit, ironically after a certain age (I don't know the cut off) Morgan's were no longer allowed to fit a tow bar.

A great shame for people that enjoy this kind of touring whilst having a great car for unhindered exploring, I know Tim has an earlier car hence my comment.


Piqued my interest, It's all about type approval for the towing equipnent (I.e towbar securing points, weight limits etc,etc), and I guess the reasonings behind it are reasonable, principally manufacturer cost to type approve.
I guess I'll take a tent, or glamp if we get back to Boardmasters again grin2
Either that or buy an(other) earlier Mog!
