Enjoy.

Thank you.
Good advise which I shall heed, we'll love it her 148 bhp version is a hoot and she has sold it to a guy in the local Lidl so I had to do something sharpish smile


Did you get some loo rolls included in the deal Rich?

Enjoy it, looks great but will she get to drive it much?

If only I'd thought of that David, damn it I missed that one.

Thanks, I think we shall and I'll try and behave and encourage her to drive a bit more wink

Job done delivery included from up north thumbs

Life is too short to not indulge, this will probably be our last fun car (Plus 8) excluded before the PP3 brigade takeover.

Nice one Rich & a great colour plus a 3 door. Just like mine. Though mine is not the GTI but the 1.2 SEL TSI with 6 gears & 110bhp

Cheers John, they have a good chassis and 110bhp is more than enough to have fun with but I'm looking forward to trying out the 236.03 lbs/ft torque though. The thing I like most really is that they are so understated and IMO really good value for money in the fun stakes and I like the way the Germans nail their cars together (says he with a Morgan).

Glad to hear you and Jan recovered from your scare, take care.

Just like this one but 3 doors (aesthetics) with panoramic sunroof.


Rich, did any of the sales team try it on with any of their bull shine ?

Craig, no not at all I emailed them for a lowest offer and free delivery to South Devon from way up north last night, got a call back this morning which lasted around 5 minutes as it is a cash and no part exchange deal and we worked out an arrangement that suited us both.

She emailed over the paperwork so I signed and scanned it in and fired it back to her with a deposit awaiting email with a delivery date, job done sans bullshine thumbs

So it can be done, I've done it with Motorpoint before it saves you having to put up with their dribble and shoes grin2.

The most important thing is though it has cheered up my good lady knowing that seeing any of our 3 offspring is out of the question this Sunday which is what I hoped to achieve.

Her indoors might need the optional brick under the gas pedal with 192 bhp on tap Rich flag

The good news is the bull shiners are all working from home, leaving cardboard cut out salesmen sat at the desks ....Morgan dealers excepted.

I'll bear that in mind Rob.

Morgan Park in Hamburg shut up shop yesterday for the duration and Haynes Motor Museum, I feel truly sorry for these guys what a decision to have to make, a lot of us on here are retired but can't help thinking about you boys and girls and how this is all going to work out, it's becoming almost war like conditions and I wish you all well those still in the workplace.

The lady I'm dealing with her surname is Morgan, how's that for coincidence.
