Jays here.....again.......another iteration 🙄. It’s a funny thing this forum and I’ve not come across another quite like it. I sold my last Morgan “Nero” this time last year and after dabbling for a while on TM, leaving and coming back early in the year and then leaving again....I find myself popping in every now and again to see what’s going on in the world of Morgan’s and stuff that’s not at all related! It’s like a drug!! Lost my password, the lost password retrieval doesn’t seem to work...so a new identity🤓.
I’m not planning on another Morgan but who knows what happens in the future. I still feel close to the factory and what it’s future is...working there got under my skin. So.....I play around with my 1935 Austin Seven Ulster Rep and having thought I’d given up on motorbikes, after a summer break I’ve found myself buying a Royal Enfield Bullet 500 for pottering around on!

Thanks guys! SBM wants to keep me in the Wild Mogs fold🙄. The Plus Six is too expensive in my view...when you see what else you can buy for the money. Don’t forget...I live fairly close the Yorkshire border so tight pockets syndrome has rubbed off on me a tad😂. And I’m not into the performance of the BMW six, lovely engine that it is. I just wouldn’t need the power. Now the forthcoming Plus Four might be a different matter!
