Hello! Soon-to-be first-time Morgan (2016 Plus 4) owner here, and mechanical neophyte. Despite an appalling lack of wrenching skills for a man of my advanced years (you would have thought that somewhere along the line I would have had occasion to fix a thing or two, but no...), I have the ambition to try to dig in and try my hand. Which means I need... tools. I have now heard of the difference between imperial (which sounds rather fancy!) and metric (which sounds rather scientific!) tools, and that the Morgan requires both. Is this really true? Any advice on where to begin in terms of putting together a basic set? I've seen that Amazon sells a bewildering array of "car tool sets", some of which seem impressively comprehensive but also, well, suspiciously cheap. Are these "ok" for a rank amateur? ("Ok" is good enough for me by the way!).
Having spent the last month lurking on TalkMorgan I am so impressed by the knowledge, enthusiasm and generosity of this community. I look forward to being a member of it in the years to come.
Thank you. Adam.
