Talk Morgan Forums Thread Like Summary - losing interest in cars?

I am, and after a lifetime of pottering with them. I find myself frustrated by the state of the roads preventing enjoyable fast driving even here in SE Wales. And the other aspect that I always enjoyed, taking them to bits and fettling, I find i can no longer do because age makes it difficult to "get down and get under" or at least to get up again afterwards . Never been one for "detailing" and car shows of the sort where you park up and sit by your car / potter about looking.

So what is the point? Driving down to the boat, the preferred mode of transport is the motorbike when I can at least filter through the jams.

Having enjoyed motoring from the 60s onwards, I reckon I have enjoyed the good years and now its really just about transport at best. Do you find the same feeling?

For fettling get yourself a car lift and with the help of an old office chair you can perform many jobs sitting down working at eye level. Mine was just £1500 delivered.



Not two years old yet, it's already paid for itself.

Don’t worry Perry, for the same reasons as you, I still wouldn’t sell my Morgan, the whole experience of buying it is a strong attachment, it’ll be a bad day if I’m hard up enough to need the money out of it.
