You mean to camouflage it Graham as he shouldn't be driving a Mog?

No but some folk on here think it might antagonise the public into a jealous rage & is also less safe than a tin top. So any accident could tie up more of the emergency services.
I drive mine but also respect those other views. Craig as far as I know volunteers & has good reason to be driving.

As long as I'm on a mission for neighbours or ourselves there is no reason not to use your Morgan, in fact the smile factor from other car users and pedestrians waylays any inhibitions some may harbour. In my area they all know and love the car anyway so it may be different in your area.
We are mostly adult enough on here to make our own decisions on these matters without affecting relationships and those that are weren't worth it anyway.
In general I have found that Morgan owners won't be told what to do myself included.
Take care at home and essential journeying.

If I need to drive I do not see that it makes any difference which of our 3 cars I take.
The proposition that driving a Morgan in some way might place a greater burden on the NHS is unsupportable.
The NHS is doing well, in the area that I live we have had a letter from the NHS Trust telling us that we must NOT avoid calling on the NHS because we feel we might be a burden.
Feedback from people who work for the Salisbury NHS Trust is that the A&E department is fully staffed with people who have little to do: the average wait time at A&E is so short as to be unmeasurable.
My son has a back problem, his last discussion with his GP went along the lines of "if it goes off again call 999". DO not think you shouldn't.
Sorry, this is getting silly:

Absolutely John that's why this forum appears to differ from others (not that I belong to others) I popped my head in the door at PH and soon left, not pleasant reading and only ever posted once on the Morgan bit.
It all read like being back at school mixed with the 3 monkeys off the old Flop Gear team added for bad measure all a bit sad.
