HB Me and my pal of 45 years, Bob, at the Scafell Hotel in Borrowdale last week. Great turn out John... Your shoes match your wheel nuts, and socks match the car and I think Bob beats you to a better match of your sweater and his trousers to to the hood  Looking very dandy...

I will give you a summary after a 3500KM walk. A walk in the Vosges and Alsace, then the Tarn Gorges to finish in Spain. Return by motorway to Dunkirk via the dealer. The car is made for small roads and short trips. It is clearly superior in comfort and handling than a classic. The rigidity of the chassis and the power of the engine make the car a lot of fun. above all, you no longer risk losing your teeth by rolling over bumps  . The negative aspect is, first of all, the lack of storage. No pocket to put your glasses or highway ticket. Less length in front of the passenger seat to put a bag. The rear space is narrower and an umbrella no longer fits.The second problem is the eddies of air coming from behind. On long motorway journeys it is very tiring. Maybe MMC should think of a system to avoid that.I do not regret my purchase but I have to review my way of traveling. The car has now 5500km and I had no problem putting on the passenger seat which was unscrewed. Sorry for my English.

Only a quick blast around the local roads for about 20 miles, following a week on a posh train going around Scotland (and managing to put on 12 pounds in four days due to food and whisky/wine consumption) following retirement on 1st October.
Just had to take her out especially as the weather is lovely here at the mo. Actually passed the other Mog owner in the village for the first time in years. He’s not on TM but has a 30 year old 4/4 which he’d just taken for its MOT. He’s recently changed the front suspension to include adjustable shocks and is much happier.
Personally I was just in heaven enjoying the sun and country roads. What a time to be alive!!!!
Now planning future Moggie trips/meetings (as well as other retirement activities). Have one hopefully lined up for next week and in recent couple of weeks have been fortunate to make contact with two other local owners in nearby villages (including a fellow TMer) so fingers crossed other trips to follow. Really can’t wait - yaaaay!
