Have just put the sidescreens away.
The roof is down with the tonneau in place and the shower cap for whenever it's needed.
Didn't know that you can actually take the roof off, but it's secure enough under the tonneau.
Much better thanks!

Glad you're enjoying the fresh air - nothing like a bracing run on a winters morning. Always worth keeping a golfing brolly in the footwell to whip up over you at the lights etc.
You definately get more smiles to the gallon with the roof down.

- nothing like a bracing run on a winters morning. You definately get more smiles to the gallon with the roof down. The only time I seem to use the roof is when touring France, usally because of thunderstorms. The rest of the year is hood down. Currently I do not have the side screens on, although I would use them for long motorway journeys. I wonder how long the weather will be nice enough to keep them off.

Yes it's a bit tiring without the screens on the Motorway but I do try at all costs to avoid them - getting lost being the new hobby  Let's hope we get a few more weeks of "good" -presently tiddling it down in South Devon. Enjoy your topless

You mean a Morgan has a roof?
I thought it just came with a funny sort of ground sheet to sit on whilst you had a picnic

Often think that the UK has the ideal climate for roof down motoring. In really hot countries, having the roof off is no fun and I agree with the Swiss guy mentioned above. If its above 30C I put the roof on and use the aircon.
Its heat rather than rain or cold that you need the roof for though I admit I havent tried it topless at below zero.
