York to Alnwick then down coast to Cullercoats for lunch meeting on beach Great drive in glorious weather.. On to Gosforth to check out sons soon to be new house. James BW..I asked a guy in Gosport if he knew you...said he'd never heard of you ...so there !!!!! Can you tell where I am yet ?.. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/06/15/20200615_102003.jpg) - that's because I have to keep a low profile for security reasons (and where is Gos port anyway?) ...... Bye the bye, I hope you didn't have too much difficulty at passport control when you entered the North East? We try to welcome most visitors but there are some standards which need to be maintained.......  James

A blat down to see James Hunt at Felixstowe Ferry & get my fix of prawns & dressed crab for the week.
Wednesday KH are replacing the windscreen whilst Madmax test drives the Plus Four manual & auto & Hawki hopefully test drives the auto Plus Four. Then we plan another great escape drive. That should be fun.

Still waiting for Dan to confirm if the test drive is on. I phoned him again today. I have either upset him or he is very busy. I guess based on some of the other comments it’s the latter.

Lovely drive over to Totternhoe to pick up a rug we'd put in to be trimmed (not important). Wonderful empty roads with sidescreens off.

I always use Loctite on drain plugs. Good advice both, something to note for next change, although now I've experienced compression washers and their use, a fresh one each change should be OK. TBH, the old one was crushed flat, so may have been reused previously. Having removed the oil with a pump, I didn't really need to change it, but thought I had got the correct replacement last time out, and made a mental note to get the correct one at the next change, which has just happened. Oils well that ends well, and pressure steady at around 3.5 bar.

Lovely drive out with the local Morgan club to a golf course for brunch, a threatening sky but all dry, the end of lockdown meant an excellent turnout 49 people I will have to work on posting pics .

Went to KH for a new windscreen, met Hawki & Madmax for a drive & then drove the new Plus Four auto.

I also drove the Auto Plus Four just before you John. It was seriously quick in my opinion. Better ride quality. What did you think of it John?

David, a stunning package, there is a comment on the other forums by me & Gary. But the seats & lack of storage plus the price difference makes me think twice. Plus Four DrivePlus four drive 2
