Yes I think that's right, I remember it being new in 2009 when I bought my Sport.
Heinz -- it is a different colour from Indigo but similar.

Looks lovely in Sport Blue Markus, more understated & retro than the metallics in my opinion.

It s not the classic car anymore but it is the best Morgan i have owned.
I felt that way when changing from a Roadster to the Aero chassis Plus 8. All you have to do now is enjoy!

Only covered around 1000 miles, so it’s a little early to fully explore the full performance and handling of the plus 6, but you can only be impressed by both. I have found the ZF gearbox intuitive, but tend to use the gear selectors prior to any spirited moves and I agree with Marcus “not to have a heavy right foot”! My first and only other new build was a 06 Roadster and I have to admit the build quality has improved since then… The plus 6 cabin space is noticeably larger then the roadster, but the storage behind the seats is quite a bit smaller, but sufficient for a weekend bag. I was slightly apprehensive having seen so many negative comments around the seats, although you have a slightly more upright driving position, I found the seat comfortable and supportive. I have quite a large frame and i fit fine.. Only a two niggles, OS Fault light and petrol gauge inaccurate reading (its a Morgan). The car is back at the dealers for its 3 month check up so hopefully both will be sorted. No “tour” pictures yet but one on the day of collection. Aston Martin Scintilla Silver & Mulberry leather.

Very nice Mike. I hope you enjoy controlling that beast. I did a test drive & found the performance was incredible.

Mike, thats a nice colour combination. The black A-pillar is special isn't it? Typically it is in body colour. I hope you enjoy your toy. Did you realize that the fuel gauge has a second function as an indicator of road inclines?
How do you like the heater so far?

Great to hear you are enjoying it, looks lovely.
p.s. The fuel gauge doubles as a G-force meter.

Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.
