Did anyone see the Drew Pritchard Classic cars program yesterday where he was reported to insult our Morgan cars!
Hi *Drew,
I watched the prog' last night and was terrible upset and surprised at you knocking the Morgan car as "A Tudor shed on wheels" or something to this effect! You've not only upset me by saying this but the whole of the Morgan community! I being a Morgan owner for over 40 years now, having all of the models including the three wheelers and now running an Aero 8, which incidentally is not made of wood, but has an aluminium bonded body with (now) just decorative wood trim. An unreserved apology would now be in order from you being a (somewhat) knowledgeable car dealer and fellow enthusiast. I and all the others in the Morgan fraternity await upon this!
*PS. I've been buying & selling (like your good self) for well over 40 years now and was very surprised by your remark. I would not knock the 911, which incidentally is now referred to as the nine one one.
be nice toi find the clip and video grab it..

The bloke is an ignorant pig headed ar*e at the best of times. I avidly avoid watching any of his tripe.

Fully agree with your comments Richard, the guy thinks he is so superior. I would hate to work for him, well I just would not.

Never heard of him & am not motivated to look him up based upon this.

Yep, not a big fan of old Drewpy Prickhard.(I stopped watching Salvagae Hunters cos of his snotty attitude, but watch Classic Cars as Cowland seems to know his stuff) but surely he's allowed to say what he wants on his programme?
As far as I'm concered he can be as derogatory and insulting as he likes about my Mog - it doesn't affect my enjoyment or pleasure one jot. And to be honest, if Morgans were more favoured and respected in the classic car world, I probably wouldn't have been able to afford one.......

I thought it was Millenials who were supposed to be the snowflakes, triggered by anything they hear that might upset them? The way I see it, there are a lot of Morgan characteristics that are objectively inferior to modern engineering design approaches. But who cares? We love them despite their faults. If we wanted better sports cars we could go and buy them.
