They are in their cover and safely locked away in the rack on the back.

The car looks better without them, too.


Have you relented on the rack Peter?

Had a blast down the M6 and A6 today from the North to Wigan. They don't half like their speed cameras on that A6. The rain was heavy for much of the way so being a bit of a wimp the hood was up. It was the first time I have used it in the rain and it is comforting to know that Morgan have not lost the art of building leaky hoods (being a traditionalist and all that laugh2) we might as well have left it down!.

A question for recent Plus 4 drivers, should the light on the clock illuminate? All the other dials light up apart from my clock.

Have made a nice tour around Ostfriesland today, 110 km, clear sky with sun and clouds, 10 - 14 deg. celsius: It is fantastic to drive all those small and empty winding roads with a morgan!
Got 1105 km on the clock since I picked up my new mog last week and enjoyed every km!

Nice shot!
Very nearly drove the Morgan today. Was cleared to drive by the docs last week! Taken the Panda out a couple of times and then the Z4 this morning. Great to get behind the wheel after 15 weeks off the road! Then the rain started and I really want my first drive in Nero to be hood down side screens off. gloomy

Good to hear you are mobile again and getting close to some Nero time thumbs.

Quite interesting your journey back to Nero going Italian, German and English.

Good to hear John !

No excuse for tomorrow though - sunshine forecast from dawn to dusk, so Nero out, roof and screens off and a bit if factor 25 on the schnozzle.

Had a 400 mile round trip to Snetterton on Sat to see / help Chunky and Henry take Frankie to two class wins and a lap record, so a very good day all round.

Nice to see Cain (and apologies for my slow recognition of you - I think it was breathng in the race fuel fumes as we refuelled both cas that addled my brain a bit !)

Cheers !

Took it out for the first time since early December today. Frightened myself to death at the end of my drive as the brakes hardly seemed to work! Did about five miles, braking hard deliberately and thinking that there was something wrong with the brakes. Then tried left foot braking and locked all four wheels....the brake works, my right leg doesn't!
Result...badly swollen ankle frown

Guess I'll be sticking to the Panda and Z4 with their lighter, more assisted brakes until my ankle and leg strengthen!

I need to get back in love with the car....at the moment it feels like a pile of sh*t frown2
