I drove my dad's Morgan today. Brisk 55 degrees this morning, but I thought I would get the NC DMV license and theft inspection out of the way so we can get the title completed. Got to the DMV office and the inspector happened to be the same person that inspect a 1917 Model T firetruck we bought in August. I had to wear my sweater, but well worth it. Such a joy to drive. Cool

B Those speed bumps in Exminster are probably the worst I've ever seen.................. You need to approach Berrybrook from the south end of the village, as this avoids all of the speed humps. Good gossip with Adrian over coffee and cookies. He arrived hood down, but with that slightly smug look of those with heated seats. I think smug bottom would be more appropriate

Series 2 3.7 Roadster hmm?
Maybe it's an updated one with the corrected ecu software (I'll get my coat)
Or maybe they are going to roll out a 5 link rear suspension version?

Yes, I've had a fantastic drive in my Morgan today - over to the Norfolk coast along some great A, B and unclassified roads! My gleaming new Morgan is now not so gleaming. In fact it's covered from headlights to tail lights in Norfolk's finest mud and muck. Got wet a couple of times en-route and even had to stop and put the hood up when it got too heavy at one point. However, that's all part of the experience! Got a day's exploring the Norfolk coast and then the journey back home to look forward to (followed by a bit of car cleaning!). Can't wait!

Just back from a 2300 mile trip from spring like 15 degree temp to winter 3 degrees !!!
York to Lenno Lake Como to sort out daughters wedding next year...took the all black 4/4..decided to take Morgan at last minute and glad I did ...great car for long solo tour...44 mpg and cruised at 80 mph on long boring bits.
Did not see one Morgan on trip...lots of interest and happy waves from all including Police in all countries I passed through (even Swiss Police smiled !!!)
V cold in York now...wished I'd stayed longer at Bellagio !!!
