Sounds like it was me.

Owned the car just over a month and its off for its service after knocking up the best part of 3000 miles. So you may see me coming bac the other way possibly pushing to save the money for the kids christmas presents.

I'm pleased to hear that you are enjoying the car John. I think it's a good one and almost quite unique. Only Funky's Series III Aero 8 was ever painted in the same colour and since Morgan Motor changed to Glasurit paint there will be no more Refelx coloured (or flip) cars. driving

Aeroman,
An excellent choice of car, how does it compare to a Mk3? I've been trying to log onto TM with limited sucess, does TM have an events proposed for next year?

TO be honest, very little difference Asbojohn. A slightly tighter turning circle, better lights and washers for them, and a few minor changes to the drive-train to partially eliminate the drive-train shunt, which you quickly become used to anyway, but really nothing of note. I just like to change my car, every eighteen months to two years. smile

If you PM me your problems signing on to TM, I'll speak to Simon and see what can be done to resolve them as it shouldn't be anything major.

Cheers
Brian

Theres a christmas dinner planned in the not too distant future, and there are tentative plans for all sorts of things next year. Not least a trip to the Nurburgring. (about time I got some more details on that...)

If you cna't sign on first time, try signing on twice - thats what works for me...
