Knebworth to Bury St Edmunds and back. Went out with my Roadster, returned with a lovely little Sport Black Plus4. A surprisingly different drive!

Sadly, they did, a Green Roadster and a White PlusFour. They were the two that I test drove prior to buying my Roadster. I'm baffled, I always go really carefully in a car that I'm not used to, particularly when it belongs to someone else, and even more particularly when it's a Morgan. I don't know the full circumstances, but it may be that Crimes Against Morgans have been committed! Capital offence?

OMG, was it on the MMC / Dealer drive weekend ? Perhaps potential new to Morgan drivers, not used to cars without driver aids ?

Yes, I believe that it was part of the MMC weekend. I don't know anything about the drivers or their experience. Just a sad waste of two beautiful vehicles.

I would love to have gone for a test drive in the MMC weekend event. Currently in tight lockdown of the town borough boundary with a radius of about 4 miles maximum. Williams are nearest, about 80+ miles and in a different country! I would have driven sensibly....honest!

The green Roadster was lovely. The white us four the manual demo car. Very sad.

Some of these people will be test drive jockeys.

But any serious buyer wouldn't object to arranging their own insurance.

The risk, especially on the CX cars is growing rapidly and will penalise those who can contain the performance safely.
