Just back from a Simpson Desert crossing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simpson_Desert (no place for a Morgan!) and despite it being a remote and 600Ks+ journey there were plenty of 4WDs there as well. Just back from a trip "up north" to Carnarvon and the number of 4x4's and off road caravans was amazing. Sounds like fun.

Bet there was'nt too many B & B's with a good ale and the only local food you would have bought would be a meat pie and an iced coffee.  (Hope you had a good trip)

I vote for Grahams approach.
Beer.
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

Probably the best thing about Morgans is that they encourage "touring", and MrsW & I have done a lot more touring since we had one, especially since she retired and I went part time. (Touring = the long way round).
It takes us back to our early days when our first day out was to Scarborough in my Dolomite 1850 (French Blue with overdrive, black interior). From that we had plenty of touring holidays until MissW came along and then we didn't tour quite so much.
Never been into camping or caravanning though. Prefer even a rough B&B, and we've stayed in plenty of those over the years!
Obviously, a posh hotel with decent wine is preferable.

Interesting. Sounds like Simpson was a rather more successful explorer than Burke and Wills.

How are you getting on with the Grand Cherokee? We're thinking about replacing our old but very good TD5 and these JEEPs look like good value for money.
