In our house, we just call it “ the Morgan,” but usually with a silly parody of a posh accent. I have to be careful not to let that slip out in public though, anyone overhearing might think we seriously are pompous twits.
Has anybody called theirs “Piers”?
If it had to have a name, it would need to be: Woody, Twiggy, Ashy or splinter.

Stewart, Mog off road till April on those plastic tyre protectors only noise is me starting the mog up and checking it over . Oddly I was at Durham at the w/end and spotted a huge 4x4 up on some high ( couple of foot ) plastic containers next to boat club . How he got it up there hell knows nor how he will get it down and why !. gave it the nickname Mistress . Use your imagination.  Well It could explain all the banging and creaking

Yes. The whole think is sickening really. Like being invited to "go for a noggin". However, my Morgan is Possum since its reg number is ... PSM. When one is old one has to make allowances.............. And why oh why isn’t it a ‘Moggin’ Good question Stewart. I’ve asked loads of people why “Noggin” but no one seems to know.  Doesn't it come from the old saying of 'a noggin & natter' or as we perhaps now know it 'a beer & a chat'
