Congratulations on the new addition to the family collection.
I'm guessing that you'll be tasked with keeping clean while Mrs V is out having fun in her new toy?

A classic colour combination and a lovely looking Morgan; wishing her many happy miles behind the wheel (and you when you are able to wrestle the keys from her grip!)  Yeah I’m not sure she’ll let me until it needs refuelling She’s looking at it on the drive quite keen to go somewhere. It’s currently sat next the her 4X4 Morgan equivalent. I think she feels it’s like a Rolls compared to the Defender ![[Linked Image]](https://tm-img.com/images/2023/10/19/E9D860B0-3E8C-4A96-B526-C4759E498B9D.jpeg) Oh, what's the blue 'droop snoop' hiding on the far right, please ?

I recognised the blue snoop, it’s an Alpine, Frenchtastic!
I’ve only had a brief drive in a plus four courtesy of Revolutions in Scotland, it was so much better than I’d have thought possible. It chucked it down with rain when I bought my Morgan, might be a good sign, mine proved to be faultless ever since. It’s good to learn how well it coped with bad weather too, should make for a super all year round useful driver.
Maybe it’s just not her thing but it would great to see some posts from your wife, until then, I wish her many happy miles!

It didn’t leak too badly considering we were on the motorway but this morning there’s water marks all down the leather door panel and the carpet is wet. Nothing lasts forever I guess I think there needs to be a reeducation around these Plus 4’s. They’re so drivable, easy to use. Totally different ballgame to the old trads. Unfortunately my wife will never be posting on a forum I’m afraid. Will be interesting to see if she takes it to town to have her hair done tomorrow or uses the Defender

..... it didn’t leak too much but it did offload a fair amount from under the steering column on her first sharp right hand turn.... this morning there’s water marks all down the leather door panel and the carpet is wet......Still nothing lasts forever. Maybe I'm having a Voltaire moment (“I wholly disapprove of what you say, and will defend to the death your right to say it”) but surely at this price you absolutley have to give the dealer (and by implication, MMC) hell.

Tongue in cheek comment. I’ll get it sorted but not before I try and understand where it’s coming from myself

Some technical info for you Viper.If your good lady is 5ft11 she will get a wet right knee 5ft9 two inches above and so on. From now on only let her drive the Landy or the Mog a normal tintop that drive's well and the roof dont leak is totally out of the question. You can also get a new roll of kitchen towel jammed behind the seats,mopping up can be done very quickly on a junction is good when she looks the other way.....Em
