Just a warning SWMBO and I came through Sunderland on the way home and she informs me one of the rear reg plate lights are out . So I head for Halfords . I was looking about at wax etc etc June asked for a bulb better make that 2 tells the young lad what make of car and the reg etc . He tried to put it in and shot back to his counter inside . I tell June " I will sort it out in the morning " I go into the garage this m/ing and the idiot had given her 2 very tiny wrong bulbs , they should look a bit like a long fag end . So its off to the local car shop and when home I notice the idiot had used several of any screw driver he could grab to try to get the panel out . What a mess of the screw ends . It took me most of the m/ing but I refuse to be beaten and have plastic tubs with lids on with all kinds of stuff at last its done and with 2 new screws . I did notice he was rude to me but I was thinking home and rear lights not take his head off . But I go in often and now aware . If you shop in Halfords best in future to check what you have been given before you set off home . I know we will.

Wow Morgan came across really well on this programme....that HAS sold several Plus Six's.
The rest of the programme was also more interesting than I expected...
Honesty means doing it right, even when no one is looking!

I have Plus 8. I don't have a waxed 'tash... SWMBO would kill me.
I'm now confused. Am I a "high net worth person" or a normal person who likes a Morgan Plus 8?
FWIW, Tarka has a lot off the sort "features" that seem to attract these wealthy people. What sold the car to me was the way it drives, not the stiching on the headrest.... Just an observation.
Oh, there are about 100 Aero Plus 8s in the UK. There is only one that is finished in RR Pearlescent Bronze. Seems special enough for me.

I had a nice chat with John Hildred when he was with his Aero GT on the Williams stand at Prescott last year
Came over as a really nice chap
The Morgan bit was great, and what an advert to be included with luxury car makers like RR and Bentley
But some of the ostentatious and pretentious bollocks just grated with me
And I actually laughed out loud when the Lamborghini salesman was helping the builder chap chose the interior of his new Anus. He said “ if you take away the yellow leather seat panels, you get a uni-colour”
Er
He meant a seat all one colour.. in black !!!
How different !?

What a pile of crap that was! I personally HATE programmes which are just about saying “look how much money I’ve got” and this was a prime example. Are people who can afford to buy anything they want real enthusiasts? Maybe they are, but they just come across as show offs. I fast forwarded through the whole lot to get through to the morgan bit. Don’t know who the guy was (is he on here?) but come on fella.....have you looked in a mirror lately? You look ridiculous. My wife was laughing her head off at that ridiculous tash

""ostentatious and pretentious bollocks""
Describes not just cars, but the hotels and cruise liners that the modern "high net worth" person seems to feel are important.
I just do not understand why enough people are interested in gawping at these people to make TV programs worth making.
