Such a stunning car must now prove the doubters wrong  . How much more 'Trad' looking could you get  . Maybe Green Roof with wires and a spare and another R100 could be born ? Fabulous.

Looks terrific. You'll love it. I'm only a few ownership miles ahead of you but I've done a couple of good cross country runs and it really is a lot of fun. The only irritation for me was having to use the key to open the lid of the little compartment behind the seat so I've fitted a little leather pull. Works well. I also found that the flat glass on the passenger wing mirror is next to useless, but that's easily changed.

I think I've been too enamoured with the M3W recently. For some reason, I realise, I think the classic (or "pseudo" classic) Morgans looks weird with those two wheels at the back.
Other than that, I like it. I even like the colour, which seems to add to the car.

Lovely colour, very classic, what green is it?  We saw a green +8 in the final check bay during a factory visit back in May. As others have said on TM, and IMHO also, the new +8 looks better in the flesh than in the MMC publicity shots. But I think your photos, especially the front 3/4 view, and maybe the colour too, show the car off at its best. Don't know what the side pipes sound like, but the standard rear exit system was impressive enough, more can only be better! You lucky chap
Philip.

Side pipes, no M-organ pipes and would do justice to a cathedral. Looks good
All the best

Absolutely - photos do not do the new Plus 8 justice; in the metal they are a good looking car with a lot of presence. Congratulations Deano; hope you have many happy miles behind the wheel
