May your ribs heal quickly! Much rather be out drving my Mog than looking at it in the garage ;o))

In August 2003 when our bundle of joy arrived, I started out thinking that the Morgan was a very fragile device. Granted, there are quirks. And you need to be careful of speed bumps etc but (and this is a big BUT) - you will do more harm to your car if you keep it in the garage and never use it for fear of damaging it. Many on this forum and in the MSCC have very smart cars - that are used. We have a DonMog member with an Aero who has not done 2 Autotests and a Sprint taster day - without damaging the car. The same chap took the oil cooler off on an obstruction on a friend's drive at 2mph. My point is this - we have enjoyed our car far more by using it than we have by wrapping it in Cotton Wool. I take great care when I clean it (it is the only car we have that gets cleaned more than 4 times a year) and I am fastidious with the grease gun and the spanner check. Through all the DonMog Autotests and Car Trials we have not damaged the car. I did scratch the wing badly with a clumsy bicycle move in the garage - and I am kicking myself - but the car has come to more harm in the garage than it has on the road. It pains me greatly that, at present, that the only car I can drive is the Disco - if my ribs are a bit better I desparately want to get the Morgan out - I especially want to join the Tormog run on 22nd July. /End rant Best regards Paul ------------------------------------------- View posts on The Mail Archive http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ [http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/] Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?&; Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com ------------------------------------------- View posts on The Mail Archive http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ [http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/] Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=22459785&id_secret=22459785-4a39ddf8 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
