A good Morganeering friend of mine, who I trust implicitly and also has a Roadster Four Seater has just fitted this himself (very brave)

[Linked Image]

He messaged me yesterday saying it was absolutely superb, saying how delighted he was with the result and that I must, must meet up and give his Morgan a drive as I’ll be smitten

We’ll probably meet up in Southport next week

But

Strangely one thing I never groan about or even think of as being rubbish is the steering on mine. Maybe it’s because it feels better than my previous Morgan or maybe being a relatively fit 57 year old, who plays tennis 3 or 4 times a week, my arms never feels overly worked

It’s not something I’ve ever thought about improving

But have any of you fine Morganistas had this fitted and if so what do think about it?

It doesn’t seem daft money

I have a 4/4, Cannot see a reason anyone would require power steering. The 4/4 in my opinion is the ultimate Morgan. Happy days

Taking a brisk walk down the sea front might be good for the legs but do little for arm strength …….q try stress balls, especially after all the Supersport new car thread nonsense. MM
PS sorry Spencer left the forum as I appreciated his views but I think leaving suggested a real shallowness and little understanding of other peoples views . Hope he reflects, grows a pair, apologises and comes back as he was a valued asset . It’s what an older Morgan man I trust would do

Just spent an hour and a half washing and polishing the Plus 4 this morning, a great stress buster and helps build up my arm strength. I'm just biding my time to see how the newer CX reliability pans out and then I might jump into an automatic Y23 or later CX. Not so sure I like the new more slim line less lighting on the latest CX, but the right spec could tempt me.

As in all things time is the enemy, it's not on any of our side, there is never the right moment, one can just trust one's instinct, take a plunge and always sell it if it doesn't quite work out as you hoped. Its not like it's trading in an arm or a useful leg for one, although often it can feel like it. at the time.
