Will there be any food? My parents seem to be incapable of eating breakfast before 8am.

I may have to give this a miss. I have two places booked for the factory tour at 0940. If anyone wants them, let me know on here. Don't know if my PM is working.

I'll take these if available. I'll try and PM you

kzh, you've gone quiet. Let me know if you're still interested. Otherwise, if anyone else wants two tickets for the 1000 tour (just had an email from Morgan bumping it from 0940), send me a message.

I've done around six factory tours since the early seventies, You are in for a treat.

Is that because the tour hasn't changed since the seventies?

Every tour has been superb. the craftsmanship is first class, obviously it's a lot more slick and professional now.

They sell some nice stuff such as leather flying jackets in the shop, wallets, that kind of thing but very expensive.

On two of the occasions I did older tours, it resulted in me placing orders, so it must work for them.

Thanks

Ohhh yes, some proper posh breakfast baps for tomorrow with poached eggs and hollandaise sauce on offer (as well as sausage baps and more). Come hungry!

That's peak Cheltenham.

"Please do not arrive early, as the venue will not open until 09:00 and you will block the road. "

"9:00 AM | Factory Tour - We suggest you arrive 10-15 minutes early for your experience, to allow time to check in."

Hmmm. ?

Just turn up at 88mph.

Yes, I saw the conflicting info, and thought the same. We're leaving at 6.45am, 2 hour drive, with a coffee stop and hopefully finding a jet wash on route. A prat of an auto locksmith failed to show, meaning a new one didn't get in to the car I'd been locked out of until 9. Put to bed any plans I had to give it a wash.

[pauloroberto]

Thanks for a great event.
There was a nice selection of cars on display and our tour was fantastic. My son loved sitting in the Le Mans car and getting off cuts of leather and veneer.

[TR4man]

Really enjoyed this event, thank you so much for organising it.

I have to say that the Visitor Centre really was a top-notch venue and I will certainly be returning in the future.

It’s well worth £32.50, the tour, so £16.25 is a great price. But, is anyone going to be working in the factory on a Saturday? I have only been on a weekday when the factory was in full swing, and I am 99% sure a Saturday tour was not available last time I went in 2021.

No it will be empty. You probably know that by now though

TX.

I didn’t go - I assumed it would be empty!

[Agent57]

You get to wander closer to the cars when the factory isn't working.

We really enjoyed the factory tour.

[Mikebentley]

As a resident about a 100 meters from the venue I would like to convey my thanks to the visitors and organisers for the lack of stupid driving. It has been a nightmare lately for residents with certain groups. I hope you had a great day there looked to be some cool cars.

[Master Bean]

Thanks Ben for organising. Enjoyed my ride in the 3 Wheeler. My favourite car was the Daewoo Matiz. Magnificent.

[Wardy5]

Thanks for organising. I particularly enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and a top notch venue. I've been meaning to visit Morgan for years and it didn't disappoint.

Really enjoyed the factory tour and passenger ride in a 3-wheeler. Great cafe too!

My favourite was the Skoda Yeti on CrossClimate tyres. A fine combination.

Some less interesting cars were there as well.

Good event though, although the breakfast with cold poached egg and fatty bacon wasn't a winner. Coffee and cake at the cafe inside was great though, as was chatting with the PH chaps, nice to put names and faces to articles I had read
