Morning all - does anyone have any recommendations on best cockpit cover to buy. Or have one they do not need anymore? I have the hood down most of time with the morgan hood cover on so it is a pain to undo all that to put hood up when just popping away from car for short while - i thought a water resistant cockpit cover might be the answer?

John Taylor's Storm Covers are generally reckoned to be the best. He does a full-length version(useful for keeping rain off the engine) or a shorter cockpit cover. See http://www.morganhoods.com/id67.html

I can also thoroughly recommend Johns covers
There are covers that just go over the cockpit but if parked up in torrential rain, I think its best to have one that covers the bonnet as well for the sake of a bit more material
Johns are very easy and quick to fit with elastic over the lamp housings and elastic over door handles etc
one of the best accessories I have ever bought for the Morgan - never travel anywhere without it stowed away in the back and have needed it on quite a few occasions
another top tip - also have a large thin tea towel or similar towel with you as well in a waterproof stuff stuff sack to wipe away any pooled water on covers and hoods before you either take off the cover or roll down your hood after heavy rain

Also John’s brilliant cover (when in the bag) offers a modicum of lumber support on the longer trips PS – I’m not a chiropractor

+1 for John's cover. I bought mine a couple of weeks ago, and on our recent trip to Antrim and Donegal it was thoroughly tested  and worked a treat!
