I bought a Snooper MySpeed Aura because my speedometers (nearly typed speedos, then thought better of it with the comedians on here laugh2 ) have been so inaccurate. It is supposed to be water proof, but I noticed it's joining the rest of the car's gauges on occasion, by misting up. Occasionally it has difficulty finding satellites, where my normal SatNav has had no trouble locking on, even part hidden under the dash.
I know Jays has tried one or more digital speedos... (There, said it now! hide ).

Sorry for the thread drift David!!

Yes, it is a digital GPS speedo available from -

http://www.digital-speedos.co.uk/gps-products-22-c.asp

The speedo works well but the flexible mounting arm was useless and broke after a couple of weeks. I used double-sided tape to secure it after that.

No connection with the supplier

I'm with exbiker in that on all my Mogs I have had a rack with the side screen carrying space.
I very rarely use the screens but it's nice to have them just in case.


Here for a good time not a long time!!

Four seaters don't have a luggage rack they have a towel rail. Much cheaper to procure.

Thank you all.

I hope Williams will have the "Steve T" to fit.

Cheers

This is the other type of rack. Note the over-rider brackets are completely different to Max5's.

Ah well, that's the wonder of Morgan. You only find this stuff out after you've parted with your hard-earned.

Buying a Morgan is a bit like getting married. You think you know everything that matters....... until you get married.

When I bought my Roadster I'd been in the Club for five years and trawled the internet cars for sale over that period.

I didn't even realise there were two hoods.
I certainly didn't know that the front track (at that time) was almost six inches narrower than the rear. I measured the front width to make sure it would fit down the drive......... Good job I allowed some leeway.

What I did know was that some Morgans looked much better than others.

I just bought 'a rack' and that was it.
