Howdy! Nothing in the handbook to show me how to adjust the time in my 2014 Plus 4. The clock hasn't been adjusted since clocks went forward...and I'm clearly failing the initiative test as I can't see anything obvious. (Which no doubt it is!) Help please!

My 4/4 (two years earlier than your +4) has a micro-button under the dash approximately below the clock. Hold to make clock go forward. Easy in Spring +1 hr, in Autumn +11hrs (as you can't spool the clock backwards). I'd expect your car would be similar, but hey - it's a Morgan!

Disconnect the battery and wait until the clock on the car shows the same time as reality and quickly reconnect the battery.
I think my level of Morgan maintenance and knowledge may not be up to the same level as many on here.

All that matters is that it works for you  I have never bothered with a clock in any of my Morgan's, I don't wear a watch either though  .

A short push on the under dash button will move hand forward one minute. Hold it, and it motors round in forward direction at ever increasing speed. On my Roadster the button is visible if you peer under dash to right of steering housing and clock itself.

Plan C - leave it on GMT (I do that with most of my cars - mainly because radio logs are GMT). It will only be "wrong" for 7 months of the year (not 6 as a local BBC radio presenter stated on Sunday afternoon!).

I have 2014 plus 4. clock adjustment on clock face itself. Two little indents at the bottom of the face, run your hand over the face and you should feel them.

My 2016 Plus 4 has the adjustment on the front of the dial via two pin-holes. Use a pointy instrument (a ball pen will do) in the right hole to move the hands forward, and the left to move back.
