The factory display was 'up the hill' Graham, so without RTA you'd be a bit lost.......

Ahh - very good Dave!  RTA was up 'the other hill' virtually by Cheltenham Racecourse station - a venue I used to know from the metal road side (in a past life...) Cheers,

I managed to get some good close-ups today at Cheltenham.
First what I took to be a 4/4 Sport - but maybe not - stainless wires: It's a Plus 4

Cheers, We saw you in RTA at Cheltenham on Sunday. We were in the car park leaving around 6ish and gave you a hoot of the horn but I think you were distracted.

Ahhh, I did notice a toot, but, yes, distracted would be one word - just couldn't believe the number and variety of cars! Fantastic day out! Cheers,

They're all different Graham.......didn't you know???  It seems that with a bit more effort we could have met 'more of each other', since quite a few on here were in attendance. Something for next time maybe.

Some nice detail from under the skin for future reference. A couple of points if I may, My 09 4/4 Sport had 2 steering greese nipples per side, having just done the 06 Roadster could only find 1 per side, did I miss a couple or is that right.
On your quote from Gott and Wynn, I have just insured with them, not only a good quote but good personal service.

Lightsphere...........
I am slightly baffled by the nipple inconsistencies, but it looks like two each side may now be the norm. Your Roadster will have one straight nipple each side 'behind' the damper and hard to get at without changing to 90degree nipples. The top nipples on mine must have been fitted with the new stub axles. I think Heart of England Morgans sell a replacement top bolt drilled to take a nipple. Probably a worthwhile update, especially if they are all like that now.

Thanks for that, I will just keep the steering well greesed and hope for the best.
Incidently a cheque is on the way for the gaitors.
