Delivery Trip
Finally the car and I meet at Fazazz (NZ agent). Then it was on the road to drive from Christchurch in the South Island to home in Auckland in the North Island. 1500 km's plus a 3 hour ferry crossing. Attached are a few select photos en route.  More of the car shortly.

Great pictures and reminds me of being in NZ a few years ago in January. I've always said that if I was told to leave the UK not ever to return but could chose to go anywhere else in the world, I would go to NZ every time. Regards Steve

A Stunning car and what a trip to the dealership. By the time you got her home it must have been ready to go back again for its 1st Service.  Equally interested in the Windscreen story.

I had a 20km trip to the ferry on Day 2 and half way into the trip an oncoming truck threw up a large stone or bolt which was heading straight at my head. Fortunately the windscreen intervened but suffered instead. I'm now waiting for a replacement screen to be shipped from the factory !! However, it isn't impending my enjoyment of the car. I think a Morgan is a car that makes everyone SMILE.
Cheers,
Steve
