The designers at the factory would do well to read this thread.
I bet the person that they think drives a Morgan, the person on their mood board, has a sharp haircut or a man bun, is trendy, middle aged and looks like George Clooney. He is agile, fit and affluent.
I'm sure the factory/Italians aspire to have younger owners
I don't believe they imagine they ageing client base that they have, or perhaps they choose to ignore the fact.....

Good luck with the medicals Peter.
I think we all reach a stage where we suddenly realise that age has caught up.
There are things I once wouldn’t think twice about doing that I now stand back on. Having been very active in rugby and cricket it can be hard to accept the physical fall off as age creeps up. I restarted golf 3 weeks ago after a gap from late November. The muscles are telling me I need to exercise. I will start a regime.
Today I spent the morning under the Morgan. Still ok but more jobs will be broken down to smaller bites. I enjoyed it though. Great therapy. We avoided going out for a drive due to it being bank holiday madness time. Nice walk with the dog this afternoon.
BBQ this evening and currently watching the sprinkler on the lawn. We finished the BBQ with toasted marshmallows dipped in caramel sauce. Washed down with red wine.. trying some Jam Shed Malbec. Nice wine. £7 reduced to £6 at Tesco.

This used to be fun, but it seems my ageing body can't quite do what my unaged brain believes I can do.

No problem for me. I have never found any joy in car cleaning so my annual wipe over with the chamois is no more or less exertion than when I was 17! hide
