Hi IH... [thumbup]

 

Do you remember the TV programme some years ago with John Harvey Jones...?... [biggrin]

 

He was brought in to optimise efficiency and maximise profits... :blink:

 

The Morgan family nodded in agreement to his suggested changes

 

Then breathed a sigh of relief when he had gone

 

And went back to their comfortable old ways regardless... [thumbup]

Well, The Son Charles did start to implement some of John Harvey Jones suggestions after his Father died. They sacked him last year! The Morgan Factory tour is well worth doing, but they charge now, but if you tell them you've got a car on order you generally get in for free. I've been a couple of times over a few years, and yes they have modernised, the girly pictures have all gone now!

Blimey, what a car!

 

I had to read up on it after viewing that video:

Now that is what I call a "car and a half"!

I think it's the best interior of any car I've ever seen. I seem to remember Top Gear saying that the instrument dials and billeted aluminium and were 5K. No expense spared. Even though I'm 55, I'd have one. I'd just sit in it and drool.
