My plus 4 was the first plus 4 to be fitted with the electric power steering, no I didn't spec it. The car is the one that CM showed to the press when they announced the option. I love it. It is one finger light at low speed and parking but reverts to non assisted at around 20 mph  It also has the "electric blankets" fitted to the seats  and aircon  all very useful accessories at times  Cor blimey Keith! With all those new dangled things on it are you sure it's a Morgan you've got?  Well that's what it says on the badge

The new car also has wider tyres so will be heavier at parking speeds so to make the car easy for her to drive and enjoy I am going to invest in power steering this time..
Peter it is absolutely true that the width of the tyres makes a big difference with the Morgan. The narrow bodied Plus 4 and the 4/4 have very light steering by comparison to the standard Plus 4, which Alis finds a little heavy at parking speeds. I can well imagine that the Roadster or a Plus 4 with 205 wide tyres would benefit from PAS, particularly for a woman driver.

AC is roof off.

I suspect impossible without PAS.
