Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Classic Morgans (pre-CX) So, have you driven your Morgan today?

Hi all, long time lurker and not posted for a long time either. My aim now is to get more involved with the club and this forum, as I have some rather big shoes I will never be able or indeed want to fill, but with a beloved car that has so much sentimental value as a family and I will be attending MogFest next week. My Dad was a fairly well known member in the Morgan world and I am sure he would appreciate me keeping the car and myself (and mum and sister) involved.

Anyway, yes! I have driven the Morgan today, only to get about 2 miles away from home to find that the throttle was sticking wide open… which was eventful with a 200 horses tugging at 50 year old brakes! I pulled into the first lay-by and killed the ignition. A simple roadside repair carried out, although nothing obviously wrong and straight back home. It is getting looked at by someone much more capable than I at the weekend, but I am glad it happened today rather than next weekend!

On a side note, I have worked in the car trade for almost years, not once have I had to remove a bonnet to change a battery… oh how I have missed the Morgan fold!🤣
