Hello everyone

I'm new to the forum although I've been a Morgan owner for around 18 months, I've viewed various posts in the past as a guest but decided it was " time to take the plunge"

Looking forward to receiving some good and helpful advice, and who knows maybe even giving out some in future.

Cheers

Thank you

Photos will follow when I get to grips with how to post them. Meantime, a little history. I fell in love with the Morgan when at school and the plus 8 was in a friend's top trump cards. I've always loved anything made of wood and quality craftsmanship so owning a Morgan was " inevitable" although it has taken a lot longer than I had anticipated.

The car is a 2013 plus 4 in Montreal blue, it came with loads of extras which kind of spoiled my plans to create my perfect Morgan but I simply couldn't resist it. I was warned the car would pick me, not the other way round.

That sounds a lovely colour combination you have, there are quite a few Scottish members on here and at least 3 in Aberdeenshire from memory. I'm sure they'll introduce themselves in time.

Love the reference to trump cards, I would say this places you well below the average demographic on here wink

Many of us on here have waited 30 years or so to realise ownership of our longed for dream I waited 34 years for mine when I too fell in love with the Plus 8 back in 1970 reading about it in an edition of Autocar on Wolfe Island in Canada. Some dreams come true when you hustle them along a bit, the strange thing is I have never felt the need to own any other car at all in this way.

Thanks for the welcome guys, I'm not a member of jockmog, at least not yet.
I think I have managed to post a picture of the car on the Morgan pictures forum. Hope you enjoy.
I have seen a few Morgan's on the road locally, but never when I've been driving mine, i seen ewn in his at a local car show last summer and I've seen a brg one on the coast a few times. Last Thursday however, I was out in the Mog and met a beautiful sunny yellow Morgan, not very far from my home. Wondering if it's owner is a TM member?
