In the early seventies I lived in Ealing and at the end of my road was Duggies. One day I was peering in the window when Duggie came out and invited me in to sit in a new four seater in that now familiar dark green. I think that that was it: I had what passed for a brochure on several kitchen walls, and worked my way through Midgets, B's ,Tr's and an Elan until one day passing Packer Duncan in Kingswinford I stopped and wandered in.......spent this afternoon fitting a new grease nipple, reflecting on the number of hours spent under Morgans, wondering why. Then went for a drive. My wife said "take me with you " and it was obvious.
