Post by pharvey »

Loved Morgan's since I was a kid - basically brainwashed by my Old Man. Still love the design and look of these cars.....

Gorgeous looking car......BUT(?)

Great review.....

Absolutely and they sound fantastic, just a shame that with a little bit of attention to detail, they could be even better!!

When I lived in Devon I was lucky enough to know a guy who owned a Morgan and an AC Cobra. We used to 'pose it' cruising round the towns in South Devon. I loved the Cobra but he worshipped his Morgan and eventually sold his Cobra and moved to a house he bought in France with his Morgan.

Both cars IMO were cars with style and character unlike most of the crap on the roads these day.

Mind you, in those days, driving or biking was a pleasure. Sundays in my youth (11 or 12) were Church, Pub (outside with a gill and a bag of crisps), Sunday lunch and then a trip out in the motor. Usually with Grannie in the back

It’s none of my business what people say and think of me. I am what I am and do what I do. I expect nothing and accept everything. It makes life so much easier.
