Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Classic Morgans (pre-CX) Two weeks of ownership

Just arrived in Derby after a few days in Lynmouth. So came back on the A39 today. Quite a pleasant run, not much traffic and no floods. Stopped off at Bourton on the water for a break. Even quiet there! The weather has been surprisingly good, given how wet it is. Plenty of overnight rain, but not much during the day. I managed to injure my knee on the second day, while walking down Lynmouth Hill. Those who know the area will understand. The cherry pie and clotted cream at Watersmeet made up for it. Sorry to hear about your scrape Jeremy. Some drivers can be very inconsiderate.

I trust you had a go on the cliff railway between Lynton and Lynmouth. . wonderful piece of engineering?

Didn't have time to get to Woody Bay this time though.

Here is the current update after 6 weeks

Milage now over 1,600 since first took ownership.

Have hit the sump on the car for teh first time going over a speed hump.

Yesterdays drive took in Whitstable, Dover, Lydd. what a glorious day.

No roof up so far since ownership.

What are people favourite driving routes around the South East meaning Sussex, Kent and west Surrey?

Hi Jeremy.... Sussex and Surrey/W Surrey is my neck of the woods....

Many of the lanes off the A283 towards Petworth are worth exploring... Decent pubs in Lurgashall an around Midhurst too.

Look out for an eye-wateringly attractive Roadster in Sand.
