My wife and I went out yesterday and today  I've never seen another Aero 8 on the road and yesterday was our first ride out in our own (other than having taken it for a service). What did we pass 3 miles from our house in Ashby de la Zouch? You guessed it, an Aero 8 coming the opposite way (very dark, possibly black) Great to see another one..............but will you all stay off the roads when I'm on them please!!!!!! So I can feel special!!!!! (joking)

Good things come to those who wait but they've usually been left by those who got there first!

Yes today was a good day for a drive. So I took my car out for the first time in 2012. Drove around Richmond Park then into the centre of London passing two other Morgans on the way about an hour apart. Both with their hoods UP! ----no idea why, perhaps they were anxious not to get sun stroke!

TVRs were out in abundance, but no Mogs were seen! It must have been a weekend for TVR's. We were in Greenwich Park on Saturday and saw a couple parked by the Observatory with bonnets up (more to admire each others power-plants rather than break-down problems).

Only saw a couple of Tivs over the weekend's jaunts. But I did get waves from: Stag, GT6, MGBs, Spitfire, Mini (as opposed to MINI) and something from an earlier generation but couldn't see the badge.

 Very good Frank. If I'd seen other Morgans I know I'd get waves from them too

Had a great run today through Hampshire down to Winchester from Crondall, via the Watercress Line, all the time in glorious sunshine. Even  enjoyed it! How many more of you got sunstroke in your Mogs today? TVRs were out in abundance, but no Mogs were seen! No Morgan content I'm afraid. Nor did I see any Morgans as I made my way back from the Hamble to S Wales via Salisbury and Devizes ( no sign of the famous young lady either) in Lottie Lotus. Roof on as starting at 1700 hrs after the finish of a course on yacht racing. But the sailing in the sun once it came out was pleasant if not very exciting - no wind.

OK, own up.
Who on here was cruising down the Paseo Maritimo near Fuengirola on the Costa Del Sol on Sunday morning in a connaught green Morgan?
Sadly, it wasn't me!
Never seen one down there before.
