Smart! But probably not for mine - 5" and up is a bit much for a Morgan...

Looks much better with change of grille and stripe removed +1 It still had the black grille when I saw it last week. A big improvement IMO.

As I suspected, it transforms the look of the car. Looking great.

Yes, looks very nice now, IMO so much better without the stripe and with a chrome grille. To my mind this version has the ideal engine/gearbox/body width for a 4 cyl Morgan - the only other thing I would wish to be different is the hood.
But ... without the stripes is it still "Mr Bumble"?!!!

Richard - stainless as far as I know. Nigel - I rarely give my cars names but the black & yellow combo, black wheels staying - is just a bumble bee. So Mr Bumble will stick I think. I'm not keen on the classic hood, but we'll see how it goes. If I get sick of it, there's a fix, at a price! Let's hope MMC get the over-riders delivered to BHM soon.

I think Zebedee would be a good name, he wore a yellow coat and then you could tuck him up ans say time for bed

We drove past BHM today on our way back from a Togmog event, and saw both Mr Bumbles sitting on the forecourt. We didn't have time to stop and inspect the mods, so can't give you an update.
When are you guys going to pick them up?
