Aha, so the question in Tuftie66's thread is now answered!  Looks a beaut Steve. I look forward to seeing it at a future meet.  Or watching it at Prescott?  So, you'll have to transfer the "Wild Mogs" stickers. I'm guessing you'll be taking it to the Island? Enjoy the Mountain

Thanks for your comments, guys. I DID spend a few days worrying about whether it was a good decision or not, especially as I'd achieved a long held dream of actually owning a Morgan, but the time is right for a change. In fact one of the factors was a friend taking me out in his new Nissan Leaf, the all electric version. Very nice, very technological and very sensible. But character..? Nah. But the Brooklands..? Character by the bucketload I hope. It will have to undergo the initiation ceremony into the Wild Mog clan, which will probably involve a pub lunch somewhere, but yes G, it will have a little livery change before we head over the water next month. And I knew someone from Germany had been on the phone as I was there with a coffee when the call came in. I knew it was special, but that call just confirmed it. I've just read Charles Neal's test of MMC's Plus 4 in this months Miscellany & smiled as he describes the car before stating "..but one which unlike the Roadster's monster V6, you can drive hard in most conditions without fear of an appearance in either court or hospital"I love the fact I've got a Bad Boys car now..! Thank you for all your comments. There's something about this forum that is very special and I've met so many lovely people as a result, so thank you. Best go and empty the 4/4 of my bits now..
Steve

Don't worry John I'll keep his speed down by using the AH as a safety car in front!

Steve. As for buying the Wildmogs pints; if you overcook the right hander at the Creg, you'll probably end up in the pubs' car park anyway.
