Thanks for letting the Leathern Bottle know Simon.

Re: reverse wire edged bonnet

Hi John, The bonnets on Choc Ices are like this. And they look really good. When I bought my black car (as a pile of bits) it came with a pair of red bonnets with the earlier type (riveted) bonnet scoop. They too were original wired edge bonnets - shame they wouldn't fit as I rebuilt the car as a lo...

Look forward to seeing you all on Saturday lunchtime 21st January.

Re: 1979 Plus 8 class 2 race car

I know the feeling Peter... Philip and I have also reluctantly decided to sell our pretty little red historic Plus 4 Supersports rep. It too has now arrived with Richard Thorne and he and I only discussed the depressing issue of price yesterday afternoon...! All the best and I suspect that you like ...

We were second in class behind Richard Thorne but (Jonny) posted the fastest lap time of all the Morgans! M...

Re: Auction Plus 4 plus

It didn't sell Peter - but you can "Buy It Now' for around £75,000.

A darn site cheaper than Lady Di's Ford Escort which was virtually ten times dearer!
