Re: 1953 Plus 4 and 1974 Plus 8 - Auction

There's some engine number info here: https://www.morgan-spares.com/plusfour/car_numbers.html The V engines are Vanguard and so the car for sale has a Vanguard engine. Later TR engines were TS so, and I'm purely speculating that your own VT spec could be Vanguard development towards a TR engine?? Do...

Re: FIA Papers

Anyone know what spec a 1979 4/4 1600cc Crossflow can run to? The only FIA papers I can see are for the 1500cc pre crossflow or TR plus 4's.

Re: Masterclass at Portimao

Totally agree with that.. quite a display from Keith and Billy... just look at the smiles after the race below: As for the weather.... having worked at the the Portimao circuit for the last 4 years (before I cam back to the UK in March) I can confirm 100% sunshine is NOT guaranteed..
