i think it is fair to say without colin morley, the hta would not have got up and running
he has been an enormous help
a coupe club member bought a car from him, but I seriously doubt he takes it back for servicing from melbourne, so that probably isn't much help to you

Thank's GTXB, I am not far from them and was thinking what they are like as a dealer as I have never delt with them before but often wondered if anyone here has.

As a dealer cant help but as just a general bloke, Colin has done heaps for the club as gtxb67 has stated and still loves his coupes. A dealer that has survived in a large country town for so long with so many other Ford dealers close by says alot.

I'm in Bendigo and for the last few years have taken my GT-P to be serviced at Morley Ford.
They are switched on when it comes to working on my car and are always friendly to deal with. On the last couple of occasions I have had them drop me off in the town centre of Echuca, and have lunch at one of the good pubs up that way.

I cant rate them highly enough.

I have family in Echuca/Moama and have taken my car to Morley Ford to be serviced and would recommend them.

Colin Morley is a great bloke and a great supporter of the club.

After the HTA in 2009 there were a few broken coupes in his workshop including mine which lost its clutch. Got it all fixed up and was well looked after.

If I were buying a new Ford I'd get it from there.
