Security of the spare wheel: Definitely one advantage the new plus 8 has.

Its nothing to do with security, but keeping DaveW off the streets and well away from the normal population. We must keep him busy, so the rest of us Morgan owners can have a normal life. I think we should have request section for Dave, so that we can keep him in his garage doing little jobs for us all.   DaveW, picking up on NeilM's note how good are you with a soldering iron and electronics I may have a little job for for you.

If there was an " Innovation" prize alongside Concours then DaveW would get it every year?!

I'm a soldering God Adrian................but a bit messy.
Sospan - I've entered the Innovations comp twice - Buxton and 'somewhere else' and got nothing.....
So I don't bother with it now. Poor loser obviously, and a bit busy on the day anyway.

Come on.. Has anyone heard of a case of Spare wheel theft??? You would have to be a pretty desperate thief and if they took the spare wheel what about side screens, hood, all 4 wheels etc...

I have heard of badge thefts.
I vaguely recall someone having one stolen at a Morgan day somewhere?

First: Appologize my english! I think this thread is only interesting for morgan-owner which feel better if they can be sure that no one can steal the Wheel or even the t-handel in just a minute! I for myself feel better knowing also that no one can solve the t-Handle or the wheel. With my solution I can be sure, that the spare-wheel is still tightend . I am happy to find this forum to ask for solution and to show our ideas! Just my 2 cents

Not being a member of the Morgan Sports Car Club and the mention of members "innovations" by Dave W I would be interested ,along with other Talk Morgan readers I'm sure,to see some members modifications/improvements.
Are the "innovations" available to view or are they only published in the Club mag?
Thanks

I'm not sure if I speak for many but I (and probably others) have made several 'innovative' improvements and modifications to their cars that don't get published or shared with others. Perhaps we need an 'innovations' section on TM?

Good idea! I love seeing what modifications/improvements others have made to their cars.
