We love Scottish roads and Morgan driving also . Some of your descriptions brings back very happy memories of the last few years touring in the Western Highlands.

We loved the Green Welly pit stop at Crianlarich. Apart from the tourist buses there are usually some interesting vehicles in the car park ready to take the road through Glencoe or meander down Glen Orchy .

I also like the colour combination, well chosen.

Thanks for posting that. Makes me itch to get behind the wheel. Mrs F. Is washing her tin-top on the drive at present - blocking access to the garage. And then we have to go and feed the horses / put them to bed. So many jobs to do that get in the way of driving the Morgan.

Mac,

welcome to the slightly surreal world of Morgan Ownership. This early experiences are NOT exceptional, they are the norm.

Morgan Cars radiate happiness and joy: even after almost 7 years it still happens. Park in a supermarket or pull up at a country hotel and you will be the centre of attention. Often from attractive middle aged ladies (I've no idea why)....

It is your task to take the Joy of a Morgan to as many as possible, and on the way enjoy the joy of owning and driving your new mistress.

Peter

Nice colour by the way
Oakmere did a couple of Plus 4’s as a special edition with a donation to The British Legion in a similar colour back around 2016.

I seem to remember theirs was a Landrover Defender green

Loved this! Fantastic first day's Morgan ownership, get used to the interest and adulation! Very glad you get as much of it up north as down here, we'll get our first sample in August/September when we go up for the Bo'ness Revival.
