Best I could do was 1 metre out of the garage just to get the exhaust pipe out as I ran the engine up to temperature. Our road has been gritted this week as it is a fairly busy through road from Epsom to Leatherhead and I’m reluctant to drive on it while still damp and toxic to Morgans.
The Plus 4 fired up immediately after 3 weeks of idleness, a little lumpy at first then settling in to a nice reassuring purr.

I discovered the source of some damp in the garage to be a porous panel in the 60s asbestos roof which is a problem I’ll need to wrestle with. Repairing it properly will need some preparation in cleaning the surface which may be dangerous. To go the whole hog and replace the panels will be a very significant investment. I feel a bodge coming on and may chance a spray coat of something over the top of whatever is there to see if that halts the ingress for now, might leave it a few weeks until the temperature rises.
