And, now I think, as everybody with the present fuel caps, I had problems with opening it and it was sorted out by MorganPark Hamburg while traveling to Denmark last year. but that is not CX-specific. The hood is very good, almost watertight. Wipers no problems, I have the new wipers, so not the flat ones, these really wipe....! Fingers crossed, I hope it stays this way, we have two large tours to come, to Tuscany from Holland and oner month later the Alpenstrasse...., together with one other CX (2021 PlusSix) and 2 Trads, Plus 8 and Roadster.

Yesterday was a sunny and warm day in Holland and we made a tour in our 1990 4/4 4-seater which we still have. Now I know what I like of the 4/4 and of the PlusFour. The 4/4 has a harsh ride, especially on cobblestones all the dash mounts are falling off, but you don't have to bother about speed bumps, you feel them but you have enough ground clearance. One month ago I drove partly there same traject in the PlusFour, with a far smoother ride, that is a huge difference, but the speed bumps were annoying because you had to take them slowly and sometimes diagonal, it is hard not to touch the exhaust...! And a complete different seating position in the 4/4, shoulder to shoulder a far more in from. In the CX you sit more comfortable to the back, with less room for your arm at the doorsite, with the widescreens on. But the PlusSix should have more room there. For touring long distances, the PlusFour is far more suitable!
Some pictures from yesterday and a comparison with the same driver (my eldest son) in 2 Morgans, you see MorganPark treating my filler cap in the last picture, no problems since!

Thank you, Ruut Bianchi.

Great to hear that you haven't experienced any of the issues that other CX owners have. Hopefully, this is because the problems were resolved in the later models.

I am relieved to hear that the hood is almost watertight because my wife gets really stressed when it clouds over, which is very often here in the UK. Watertight and more comfortable over long distances will certainly help to justify the purchase to her (she would sooner spend the money on our house and/or more holidays). 😀

Thank you for posting the photos. The weather looks great! You are very lucky to have the use of two Morgans and it's a real treat being able to share your passion for Morgans with your son. Long may it continue.

Enjoy your road trips. They sound fabulous.
