Talk Morgan Forums Community Welcome Forum New Morgan Owner looking for assistance please

Hi everyone I'm Bob and I'm a first time Morgan owner with a 2010 4/4 and I have to say both myself and my wife have fallen head over hills in love with our new addition and find ourselves referring to her as Her-Ladyship all the time.
I am keen on spending the time that we are not out driving Her-Ladyship tinkering with her ( that sounds so wrong☺️ ) but would like to know the facts n figures etc so could I ask the collective where would I find something like a workshop manual for a 2010 4/4 ?
Is it possible to find a PDF version online ?

Thanks in advance for your assistance

Hi there,

Firstly welcome from down-under.

If you drop me a PM with your email I can send you the part's book for the "modern" trads.

As to a Haynes typle manual there's no such book for the Morgan. Best solution is the parts manual and a Haynes manual for a car with the same engine (Ford something or other); all blended with help and experience on this site.

Hope this helps,

R.

"head over hills" is where I intend to be too when mine arrives, quite a good Freudian slip there, you have some lovely countryside in Durham.

Hello Bob,

There is a lot of information out there about your Morgan, but I am afraid it is not all collected in one place.

Firstly use Morganatica which is written by several of us on this forum :

https://sites.google.com/site/morganatica/

Secondly there is GoMog which was set up in N America some years ago and is perhaps a little light on some of the more recent models (post 2003) BUT there is a lot of useful stuff about the suspension , body , electrics etc.

Also look through Dave Welling's really good "How to..." guides on this website , use the search facility to try and pinpoint which part is of more interest to you.

After that a Haynes manual for a car that uses the 1600 Sigma engine (Fiesta and Focus?) will give you data about the engine , but the gearbox and axle will be different, so its value will be limited.

Other than that just ask around here when you need data and you will be generally deluged with useful information, someone else has probably tackled the job that you thinking about and learned the lessons, and can give tips and short cuts.

Welcome to the community.

We have had Her-Ladyship for just over two weeks and we have already covered some 600+ miles in her and yes you are quite right the country side in Durham is spectacular as a Londoner myself it's all very much a new experience and one that my Durham born wife guides me throughand and with every turn I fall more and more in love with the countryside we have here.
As for falling for the car it's a forgone conclusion I myself have waited to own a Morgan since I was 12 and I'm 46 now and it was worth the wait.

MOG 615 thank you for your advice I will enjoy having a look through everything I am sure it will be very helpful to me.

Hi Pickles

I know Beamish Morgan well and did I fact got Her-Ladyship from there and I may have spotted you out near Barnard Castle the other week as there can not be too many 4 seat green Morgans locally mine is also Green.

Regards Bob

Welcome Bob,
I've been driving a trad Morgan of one sort or another for over thirty years and am about to move to another. I hope that you get to know and enjoy your car as much as I have done. Sometimes I just sit and look. Sad but true.
