Welcome to TM! I'm sure you'll enjoy the car, I've done about 800 miles in mine so far and it's been good fun. I'll probably fit a roll bar on mine and do some track days with it

Wellcome to TM and congratulations on the ARP4. Good advice to not change anything until you have used the car for some time your thoughts may change as you bond with the car or it bonds with you . As for heated seats it will be the best investment you will make £ for £. I wouldn't be without them now .  My AR P4 will not be ready for Bromyard Speed Festival so the factory have kindly loaned me the factory car .I can't wait to see how it drives now it has some miles on it . I'm also of the opinion that a roll bar would have been a good idea as a standard fitment. Don't forget to carpet the garage too.

Thanks for all the sound advice - all noted. I didn't realise flying jackets came in different thicknesses and take the point about needing to be able to move ok. And yes, I have considered carpeting the garage - but might go for astroturf! Could look kinda mellow in there.
Hadn't really considered roll bars but will pop it on my list of things to ponder on.
Bit concerned at the problems experienced by 'Captain Solo' with his new AR and astonished that anyone would have to consider popping the battery on trickle charge just because they may not be going for a run for a week or two - do all Morgans need to be nurse maided like this?

Yep they do !! It's a Morgan . It's all part of what makes owning a Morgan so much more deeply satisfying than other cars. They both require and reward a higher level of involvement.

A relationship with a Morgan is a slow burn, especially if it's your first. Every journey will enhance your experience and understanding. It took me a long while to really appreciate what I had.
