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":

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

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 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.
