There's a centerfield picture in miscellany of a young lady sitting on the wing of a trad. Not that sort of centrefold. I wouldn't let her sit on mine, would you?

Aluminium wings are fragile , even normal cars are very thin metal compared to classics , why would someone sit on a car anyway unless she has a bad back ??

I sometimes rest my backside on the rear wing of Tarka, but wouldn't risk doing the same on the front wing...

At a hotel in Beaumaris someone sat on the bonnet of a Morgan in the hotel car park for a photo whilst the cars were unsupervised. Left two depressions in the bonnet that a dent master had to remove.
We now avoid large hotels that do weddings!

Why on earth would you want to sit on the wing of anything, if you are that tired go to bed.. I can't stand leaners either

Rich, I totally agree about "leaners", they really wind me up and I have been know to get somewhat aggressive when this happens but then again, I sometimes wonder if I should even sit in my car?
Here for a good time not a long time!!

Yes Reg, I have been known to go off on one when either of these things occur I am ordinarily a very peaceful chap.

We used to take a relative out in our Golf and when we stopped and lifted the tailgate, she would always immediately sit on the back bumper. Now it's probably strong enough to take a hefty woman's backside, but you never know and scratches can easily happen.
So once the pattern was established we used blocking tactics to keep her away.......... Like a wall for an indirect free kick -says me who loathes football.

Morgan wings were designed long before the obesity crisis so maybe designed to withstand skinnny light weight leaners only
