IA handsome pair indeed , ive just become a member of this forum and looking to purchase a Morgan sometime this year hopefully, i see there is a Brooklands roadster for sale at Oakmere , and just wondering if the the bonnet and cowls were in polished form from the factory as a option or were they polished afterwards, as the the one i have seen for sale is in a satin finish , personally i love the polished aluminium look . As RichardV6 says it was an option. Krazy Horse told me they did consider polishing a bonnet & cowl for another car . It is possible as the cowl can be unbolted (nothing is welded). But a dealer would charge a fair sum I guess. They only made 50 so they don't come up very often. Why not ask Oakmere what the cost would be.

A 25 mile run out in the sunshine on Saturday. A mix of normal and higher speed driving.
Car in for its annual service on Wednesday. No MOT needed and arguably only a small service as just 1400 miles last year and my 4k mile trip to Sicily and Malta in May postponed yet again.

And a few others

No driving, but a serious spanner check, fluids, etc in anticipation of taxing it ready for spring
So, for the time being the avatar stays as 'spanners'

Remember, as from Monday you no longer have to stay local, but local is not defined.
And people can meet up as long as they are outside and distanced.
Time to get those Mogs prepared for a good drive!!
It gets better... from 12 April we can go to a pub for lunch in the garden!! Yippee!!

Whatever you think it means. I think it means "keep out of Wales and Scotland"
