My impression...and I may be wrong...is that a large percentage of the four seaters I see being built at the factory are destined for France.

No surprise.
There is no where to carry 24 bottles of wine in a 2 seat Morgan!

Carrying 24 bottles of wine is absolutely pas de problème. There is also space for some baguettes and some Brie or even a little Roquefort. In the case of Roquefort or goat's milk cheese I recommend leaving the top down.

The only real problem is where to put all the clothes and shoes that swmbo insists on bringing.

swmbo & I enjoyed our visit to Lisbon in September so much that we were discussing how we'd like to drive down to Portugal in the Mog to visit the Douro valley, Porto & so on. But then we thought that maybe we'd do better to take the Transit van so we have room for our "souvenirs". wine

I reckon that the best solution would be for us to take the Morgan drive.......... & strong-arm our #2 daughter to follow us around in the van.

We had a holiday in Porto and out to the Durro valley - it was beautiful.

Probably 20+ years ago but still wonderful.

Try the white port...

Giles,

I respect and admire the logic that drives your conclusion.

But can your No2 Daughter be sufficiently managed?

Cheers,

Peter
