Here are a couple more of The Captain out and about I hope folks will enjoy. I think I saw your car near Chiddingfold recently - pulling into a petrol station with the hood up in the rain. I might be mistaken of course. What camera are you using? Looks to be a very decent lens.

It wasn't me, Neil. I was over that way a couple of weekends ago funnily enough but in the Volvo. Camera is a Fujifilm XT2 with the 18-55 kit lens. That pic was with the Classic chrome film simulation.

A good day today....
I have always been nervous about running around without a spare wheel so after viewing at the NEC I purchased a puncture prevention kit from Autoseal and fitted this morning.
Simple job..jack up car remove air and fill with solution...job done...I needed 2x 750ml bottles as I have 205 tyres on P4SS.
Normal price £85...if you contact Autoseal direct a discount is available to Morgan owners.
I paid £72 inc p+p
Kevin, do you detect any change in the ride or handling? Like you, I have no spare and have considered this sort of stuff. It works well on the wheelbarrow and bicycle.... Peter

A drive down to the beach and then a walk on a sunny but windy day.

No change in handling characteristics...covered 200 miles since inserting fluid...375mls per tyre.
Gives a sense of security
Phil Royale also bought a kit...don't know if he has had chance to use it as yet.

Yesterday, about 150 miles to and from Allon White for Florence’s first service (1000 miles or 3 months). Top down, -1 when I set off and came back through couple of rain showers. And passed an old DHC near Bedford packed to the rafters with luggage and a wavy mature couple. I bloomin love driving this car. The first thousand was done in just under a month so methinks I may struggle to keep below the insurance restricted 5000 miles. Oooops! Trouble is, she is starting to loosen up nicely and driving her is becoming more relaxing and natural- thus once I’m behind the wheel I just don’t want to stop. Keep ending up taken longer routes to get home just so it lasts a bit longer. Flippin’ marvellous - I am so lucky. 👍🥳🤪😝🥰 HB
