I once bought an Austin Ambassador. I 'borrowed' one once. It didn't end well. ![[Linked Image]](https://tm-img.com/images/2019/12/19/TOP5Y.md.jpg)

In Germany at the time of the E-Type there was a famous motor journalist, Fritz B. Busch. Probably his most famous story is that of the "scruffed flounder", an E-Type that was hard hit by journalists. Here is the story from the series: " For men who smoke pipes": http://www.hans-cohnen.de/Bush%20story.htm

My sister always fancied an E-Type. Sadly never to be realised. She understood my love of Morgan.

This one's only 52 years old It is very nice Richard, and I would have been tempted if I hadn’t bought a blue one which accentuates the curves of the feline.😉

I once bought an Austin Ambassador. I 'borrowed' one once. It didn't end well. I never realised that the Austin QA dept had it's own fire crew, then again given the fuel fittings and engine tune was so poor I guess it makes sense.
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.
