Remember, I am now 100% retired = busy but unwaged!
Some trips were 2 miles to Tesco....
It is my every day car at the moment, sans side screens.
Today I went up to the BDAC to meet and greet 25 visitors from Andover Town Twinning Association: great bunch.
This afternoon I washed and detailed Tarka in preparation for tomorrow.... Used waterless wash in the garage, too hot outside.
Tomorrow, off to Woodstock!

The GTN has been languishing in the garage for a few weeks with the Vignale whilst the bikes have been out on the Shropshire lanes and the S5 has been getting a few outings ahead of the trip to Le Mans.
The new flaw in the S5 design I've found this week is where to put crash helmets when not needed! The boot of the earlier Aero's was better shaped for luggage and helmets, the S5 angles and cubbyholes don't work so well.

Thanks for capturing me and the Boss behind the BRG Plus 8 on the Williams stand! Nice car, but not for £134,000!!!!
The orange GT, MO61EGT "MOGIE GT" is MD Steve's new wheels.
I noticed that at last, the body behind the grill is black, so it looks as though there is a radiator behind. I've been banging on about this for years!!
The bus is a fantastic restoration, it has been built out by Morgan as a hospitality building that displays all of Morgans colours, leathers and so on, yet it retains all of a Route Master Bus essential features.

... yet it retains all of a Route Master Bus essential features. Apart, I believe, from the original engine which is now an Isuzu IIRC. Not sure whether it has the original gearbox.

The panel behind the grill has always been a strange one when painted in the main body colour (unless black) That's why I went for yellow on my series 4 Matt black Aero. Makes it look like something is there.

I understand that Steve Morris' "GT" is a standard Aero 5 with GT body panels and interior... given the orange/bronze colour, I'd guess it was used for the pre-sale teaser photos.
