Beautiful sunny but bitterly cold day, jumped in the Morgan and went a couple of miles to the lake to meet up with friends for our usual Thursday morning walk. As the Morgan is now my daily driver, it was my first time to assess how well it would meet the challenge.
Well, the highly polished dash and wooden steering wheel option makes the car feel very sumptuous and welcoming every time I get in. The auto is a breeze to drive, the power steering has a nicely weighted feel and with the better visibility out of the cabin ( no hood flaps restricting visibility) a boon at junctions etc.
The heater takes its time to warm up, but hopefully that will change when Morgan do the ECU firmware update on the 2nd during the service. Being on my own this morning, I don't usually carry a phone so no music, not too unusual as in the trad unless Sue left the remote control somewhere close, I had no music anyway. But need to sort something out. Is there any blue tooth device I can leave in the car you can link to the stereo setup, so I can play recorded music on some form of storage medium.without a phone?
Whilst I had other things to do today, on the way back home I found reasons to take detours and go down poorly surfaced roads etc to try the suspension compliance out, and I was pleasantly surprised, it was more compliant and less harsh than Sue's SLK AMG setup which can be quite harsh on broken surfaces. You are still aware of the surface, but there's no back breaking jarring I used to get in the trads.
So before I knew it a couple of hours flew by and I enjoyed the drive out..
