During the time i am investigating if i will buy a Mog and if yes witch one, i have heard several comment from Britt people saying the Mog are not reliable, always have a problem cannot be drive for long trip without huge preparation and blabla blabla. But this doesn't scare me at all, so i search found the one i want. i buy it from 12.000KM away from the dealer*, i plan my trip go there pick the car and made 2.600 miles around UK & Europa and don't get any trouble, i drove in highway, country side road , hill (the highest in EUROPA), the car now just need a good cleaning and she is ready for the next trip. I hope this post will help the one read or listen same comment as me.





* Here is the Dealer i will talk about them later

Neil, for made the things more clear, i am planning to buy a second one and import it here (Singapore) but this one must be more than 35 years old (tax reason), and i am pretty sure i will enjoy both car every single minute

If you had driven just a little further (+6,000 miles) you could have driven home! That would have been a good reliability test and probably a record for a Morgan.

many have made much longer distance, but i guess they have made a more serious preparation smile

My 2008 4/4 has covered 51400 miles (50,000 in my hands as second owner) Original radiator failed at 46,000 and Mulfab aluminium replacement fitted. No other roadside failures, so I consider that a plus plus for reliability. Planning a run down to the Pyranees in September but would not chance extended trip in any car without roadside assistance cover (AA). Hopefully I won't need to call them up.
