Well I've now seen it in the flesh and sat in it. Lovely in every respect. Those doors are small!! 😂 I didn't drive it but it's new, it must be fine(!). The only thing I noticed was a very creaky clutch pedal, which they have promised to lubricate. The wiper arms looked like they couldn't source anything as short as required so the arms are bent to shorten! The spec looks great, the brown leather colour way works very well and it has a nice spec with the mohair hood cover and luggage rack, heated seats are a welcome addition to what will enivitably be quite a draughty car on cooler mornings. Covered trailer delivery (Surry to Warwickshire) later this month, can't wait! Cheers, Giles

Welcome Carchap - and many congrats.
Thats a great colour combo IMO - they had one at Bell & Colvill?

Thanks all for the welcoming greetings! Great to hear of a few Stratford-ish folk too. Yes it is from Bell & Colvill, having an Elise too I have often heard of them (Lotus dealers too) but never been down. It's a collection of small buildings catering for interesting brands, nice place. I will keep my eyes open for any meets in the area. Cheers, Giles

By the way as mine didn't come with the radio fitting kit, does anyone know a Morgan friendly car audio place? Cheers, Giles

CC might I suggest you try for a while without one. I too was very keen initially to have a RAdio/CD player - BUT anything over 40/45 mph you will not hear it! Do not let me stop you as you may have other ideas - an earpeice link?? I do not have a Radio - and have got used to just enjoying the soundtrack of the car.
