Don't think I know Glen Douglas - looks interesting on the chart. Filed for future reference, thanks George.
We did use Glen Fruin (on a Morgan tour one year). Uni friend of sister and Brother in Law lives in Garelochhead and have delivered to a large establishment just along the road. The village cafe was utilised - Tim (Hamwich) and Andy Garlick may remember - I think it was Andy's suggestion to use the Glen Fruin route.
Must head back up that way in the next year or two smile

A trip to the garden centre revealed three Bug's in a row MGB mostly with a bit of ally.

Pirates over from Brixscum as they say here on this side of the river.

You are probably right John, once I had identified the B engine I thought the rest of it was pretty agricultural and lost interest, as I already have a Plus 8 rofl

Darker colours shout class on a Morgan unlike shouty Reds and Yellows as Bob outlined on a recent thread with Noddy's car rofl.

It's a subtle thing to me - now a Ferrari in any other colours than Red or Yellow don't seem right somehow - this could well be down to being an old fart though as Ewan's looks super with it's hungry looking design and metallic Red.

I did consider yellow with red wings but the white cowl was a deal breaker.

But in today's world, small cars are more visible in lighter colours.

No it was the the blue bobble hat surely that Margaret drew the line at.....I know she goes with the colour coordinated baseball caps out of loyalty to you, but a blue bobble no....

That is why I always drive with headlights on at all times in all our cars - people are blind or half asleep these days particularly right now with sleep deprivation and dehydration.

Some Fezzas look OK in dark blue, similar to your +8 smile

I had never knowingly seen one but a search soon revealed this beauty and of course you are right it's bang on the money.
