Yesterday SWMBO and I visited our Morgan dealer to finalize the details for our new Plus 4 we already ordered at the beginning of September. Production start is scheduled for week 3/2018.

In brief words what happened before:
In 2010, we were infected when we rented a Plus 4 from Berrybrook. Although the weather was not perfect gloomy , we were intrigued by the driving experience drive .
Since then we drove several 4/4's, Plus 4's and the Roadster (3.0) in GB, Austria and Croatia and visited MMC.
It soon became clear that it should be a Plus 4.
In order to drive with a Morgan in our garage, we had to modify the driveway in front of our garage because of the low ground clearance.
In 2012 I discovered TM which was a great help in setting the specification. A big thank you to everyone here! thumbs

That's the specification we agreed on:

Exterior
  • Colour sand
  • Easy up hood
  • Mohair hood pack (brown)
  • SS wire wheels
  • No spare wheel
  • Over riders
  • Siver mesh grill
  • Luggage rack for flat rear panel
  • Luggage rack straps
  • Round exterior door mirrors
  • Wing mounted side lights
  • Leather bonnet strap
  • Union Jack

Interior
  • Leather honey
  • Carpets brown
  • Headrest with Morgan Wing
  • Elasticated door pockets
  • Door check sets
  • Chrome interior mirror
  • Radio
  • Passenger foot locker
  • Custom made dash with magnolia instruments (will be done by the dealer)
  • Start button
  • Moto Lita steering wheel
  • Classic control stalk (will be done by the dealer)
  • Photographic build record

This winter will be very long ...

As Craig said - Sport sand is great. far better "in the flesh" than I'd imagine. Sounds lovely and very much looking forward to the photos - well done!

To find the right colour was a long and difficult way. First we started with british racing green as this was in our opinion the most suitable colour for a classic british sports car (and a roadster we drove once had just that color and looked great).
Then we switched to different combinations of two-coloured. Most favorite was beige body and brown wings. At the end we switched back to green.
Then we went to the dealer to place the order and saw there a Roadster in sport sand with a brown hood. My wife and I immediately said: thats it! smile
