I'm sure MMC has considered long and hard it's advice to owners understanding the implications for its dealer network, owners etc. and it appears many people naturally are trying to second guess the advice. Whilst it may be very inconvenient and poor timing most owners are not solely reliant upon their Morgan as their main means of transport, that doesn't detract from the real issue of getting them fixed may represent. If this had happened to me, I would be pretty pissed off especially coming up to the main holiday season and all the planned summer events.

I'm just about to head off on a trip around Ireland in 10 days time planned in my Morgan, the long range weather forecast is pretty crap with predicted Atlantic storms and it looks like the hood will never be down all the time we are there, and there's nothing worse in my humble opinion than being stuck hood up in warm heavy rain for days on end in a Morgan even with air conditioning, Closer to the time if the forecast holds true I'll just go across in the Merc, yes it may be slightly disappointing if we don't use the Morgan as its for touring hols away we bought it, but its more important to enjoy ourselves with friends and family than worry about what conveyed us there. There will be other future opportunities to get the Morgan out and enjoy a long trip in it.

However, if your insurance is not in effect and you continue to drive, you are driving uninsured which is a criminal offence and should you be involved in a serious accident then further more serious charges may arise, that's ignoring the potential civil actions that may ensue. It's just not worth the risk, not withstanding how annoying and frustrating it all is, and unfortunately how long it's going to take to roll the programme of repairs out.
