Jay Leno often praises Vintage Air for after market air con. There is a UK dealer apparently:

I don't know how it was done but I do know that Borgi has retrofitted aircon to several cars. One must is to stop hot under bonnet air entering the airbox. I have added extra foam and a bit of plastic to achieve this. I have posted on the subject but it is too late to search for it now.

I'm off to bed goodnight

To me hot days, sun on the face, is what Morgan ownership is all about. It when the car actually makes most sense.

Driving it this weekend has been fantistic, and I've got the sunburn to prove it ..... laugh2

I know... but if you check my post you'll see its not actually me complaining ;-)

Anyway I've had a idea. Anyone know what the thread is on the posts for the windscreen sun visors? Thinking of making a little deflector that fits on those

Two things you have to remember about us Brits Georgetoad:
1. We are obsessed with the weather gloomy snow sunny umbrella
2. We love to have something to moan about laugh2

The two together give the perfect combination

Everything is relative. To us, 30C is a heatwave. To an Aussie it would probably be a nice spring day.

Mind you I dont know what they are moaning about. I was out in the boat yesterday for a very slow sail ( 5kn wind frown ) taking maybe 5 hours and all that was needed was a hat and some sun lotion. And two pints of shandy the moment we tied up
