Would love to see a GTN in the flesh one day, until then the Top Gear episode will have to do..not many Go Pro videos of Morgans on youtube!

Drove the unclean and cobweb wearing Supersport into work this morning. I am off to see a friend after work who hasn't seen the car yet and is a British car enthusiast - as demonstrated by him owning a non-running Triumph Herald!!
Hopefully the garage will be back in action on Saturday - the car can be washed and I can tuck it away!

I did some 80 miles the other evening through the sun set and into darkness. Fast wide open smooth roads with just a light sprinkle of other cars.....magical.
Always loved the night time driving in a convertible roof down, the sense of isolation and hightend sensory intake makes for an awesome experience.
Doing Scotland for 5 days in July, old military road and the western coast, so hoping for some night time driving and northern lights photography as well.

I picked up our CEO from Heathrow and took him to two customer meetings in the Coupe this week. He could not believe the baggage fitted in the boot.
He was laughing all the way and the customers got cars moved in the car park to let it be parked right in front of their office. People are so nice to Morgans.
He has now decided that his next car needs sidepipes.
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

I was acting all smug yesterday with regards to no leaks. I went back to the car yesterday only to find that because it has been packed across a steep sleep water had got in to the uphill leather covered sill. And the top of the windscreen bubbles lightly.
I stayed dry though on the drive home despite pouring rain!

I stayed dry though on the drive home despite pouring rain! This happened to mine - unfortunately badly marking the mulberry leather on the door. MMC re-trimmed the panel under warranty, for which I was very grateful to B&C and MMC.  I now take a storm cover in the car behind the seats and if I ever need to park it and rain looks likely, I will cover it up.

My son and his girlfriend were with us over the weekend, and the sudden improvement in the weather gave me the perfect opportunity to take her for a spin.  Sun, a beautiful blonde, a Morgan Aero - perfection!  I felt very privileged. Shame they've now gone back to London.
