Hi All,

thanks again for the warm welcome.

Quick update: As you can see from the pictures my Plus 8 is now up and running, thanks again to our local Morgan Dealer Mr. Koessler.

It seems there is quite a huge difference between what the British MOT deems roadworthy and our standards in central europe - so there was quite a big todo list in terms of new fluids, rust and so on. Suddenly going faster than 80mph doesnt feel creepy any more so good stuff. wink

The first weekend was a blast and I intend to use the upcoming public holidays to the fullest extend - 1000km in the first two weeks of ownership would be the goal.

I will continue to document my personal Morgan journey on my own webserver: Pictures, import planning documents, Austrian MOT etc. and of course upload smaller pictures here. Including a short 3min video trailer of the ~ 6h of footage I filmed with the GoPor while leaving the UK. Sadly due to the weather it was mostly motorway footage.

https://franz0r.org/cars/morgan/ contains all the raw footage.
