2019 Moss Motoring Challenge Winners!

What’s a Morgan doing in the Motoring Challenge you might ask? Apparently it’s winning it! Driven by Mark and Glynis Lee, the Morgan drew many fans this year. And we have a feeling its unique, classic beauty—along with the joy on Mark and Glynis’ faces—distracted people from seeing just how many points they were racking up!
