Signed up but it's already 67 places oversubscribed!

Hopefully the ranks will thin out slightly, I've always wanted to see the Morgan factory!

A truely amazing place to tour - even MrsMercs was happy looking around. Watching the metal being shaped - leather being stitched.
And Charles Morgan's office gave me a happy feeling - someone who's desk/office was in a worse state than mine. Shame about the recent events.

I did that at Silverstone and there was nobody there....
D'oh, thank you, we were milling around frown The thing with Silverstone is they pretty much ran it themselves but at Morgan we will be on the gate.

Went to the Malvern Hills last August, visited the location of the factory too (as it was closed) and actually thought that this would be a brilliant place for a Sunday Service; hats off to PH team for sorting this! I would've been all over this however, I'm committed elsewhere. Also, the passenger rides sound brilliant!

Agh! Would really like to do this event but can't.

Any chance of another Sunday Service at the Morgan Factory? Seems you have plenty of interest.

The calendar is full for the rest of the year already but I'm sure there will be another opportunity.

Woohoo! I'm in...will be hooning down in the 986...let's just hope my slight exhaust blow doesn't get any worse and more " beetle sounding"!

So are you not guaranteed a factory visit until you have signed up on the day? Is it first come first served? What's the capacity for the tour and any tips to assure a place...early arrival?

I've just got in from work and seen this. Got on the list but need 100+ to drop out! I live 300 meters from the factory so anyone in the 300 with a rep mobile can park it safely at mine and I will take you in my classic 1967 Vitesse and give you the full tour of the Malverns with a pint at the Nags Head thrown in for good measure.

I showed up at the factory in 1978 and had a great time! I would love to go again - you guys are lucky.

As far as I know it's only the passenger rides which places are limited for so no worries with the factory tour, I'll check today though.

I missed this yesterday too, hoping the usual pattern of hundreds dropping out happens!

I have been wanting to see the Morgan factory for a while.
