Nero’s last drive....with me anyway....is scheduled for 4th October. A long boring one way trip down the motorway to Williams where it will go on sale. The end of an era for me. It’s been a great time with both the 4/4 Sport and the Roadster. I’ve modified both quite heavily, had some great drives up Shelsley and Prescott quite a few times, Le Mans Classic twice including spirited drives around the circuit and definitely the highlight, the trip to Caramulo with the Wild Mogs. I’ve met some great people over the years, sadly lost touch with a couple, but a few friends for life too.....it’s not just Morgans that bind us.
But.....the Morgan magic has sadly faded for me. That incomparable view down the bonnet is just not enough. I have thought long and hard just why the interest has gone and I think it’s down to me having worked at the factory....the magic, the mystique has gone by seeing so many being built. They have become commonplace for me. I yearn another real classic. Somewhere out there John is a Healey just for you.. 😉 The Car Barn (Beamish Morgan) had 2 when I was there a few days ago.

A cracking drive up to Newark today, for a muffin with Kevfitz & Dave W. Bright sunshine, mild to warm and blues skies wall to wall. Have to make the most of these days..

The car is due a service Tues next week at Crazy Horse. When I looked at the mileage I saw this year I have done 8,273 miles from Sept 17.
It has been a good year.

Had a nice brunch meet with Wirewheel earlier, in fact just what the doctor ordered really after a hectic week.
Only one of us came in a Morgan though..and this time it wasn't me..! But that didn't detract from the fact it was lovely to meet up & chinwag about Morgans..

Quite a few Mogs, inc mine, went to Toyota at Derby for a fascinating tour of the factory ....... by train! No photgraphy allowed, no souvenirs, apart from the memory of a brill trip, thanks to Phil Royle.
