Oh, and Jack the Lad and other cleaning freaks - I know my wheels need cleaning. Thanks.

 My whole car needs cleaning... Someone has dumped one of those Freelanders in your street... Shouldn't it be out roaming the plains??? Photos give a good idea of the size of the case Hope you plenty of opportunity to make use of it.

Travelling with style!!  I have been looking at these suitcases at least a thousands times now - they for sure looks great on the luggage rack. But I just found a (more or less unused) suitcase from the fifties on internet for 35£ - will pick it up next time I am in Stockholm. If that does not work out well....I will copy your gorgeous setup! Just an idea...what about integrating a rear brake light and a locking device (case to rack + padlock) in the suitcase itself

Very nice Giles. It looks as though your high level brake light might just get away with it!
Having seen it, I'm very tempted to get one for my 4/4.....the Morgan one is just too bulky for me. I've been trying to restore my fathers old case...1930/40s leather bound canvas covered but I think it is probably just too battered and neither locks lock!

I'm sure that if I were to rummage in my parents attic for long enough I could find a suitable & battered old suitcase. That this one comes with a waterproof jacket was the clincher for me.

Looks really good. With or without the cover it seems to be perfect. Many happy miles with it.

Great picture post and nice suitcase, far more practical than mine and a lovely match for the Black Sport. I went for the old 1920's antique shop version, but it leaks. I use it for show mainly, if I travel with contents I use a plastic bin liner.

Hi Will I got it from this site. http://www.motoringclassics.co.uk/lifestyle/luggage.htmlAt £255 it's still about what I paid for mine 4 years ago Looking at the locks and details on it when I bought it, I'm pretty sure that it was made by the same people as the official Morgan one they had at Morgan France, which was way too big & more than twice the price. The supplier being an MG specialist, the pricing is perhaps keener - you can order it without the MG logo (which I did). When I sold my Mog, I flogged mine and my hills alive fitted luggage to my friend Barry who lives down the road and has a plus4.
