Perhaps: + storm cover windwings... and Tommy bar.

Having a radio with speakers: never used except waiting the ferry one time.

Just bought this dedicated four layer breathable storm cover for mine. Comes with bag, ordered locking security kit as well. Live link



Less than half the price of the MMC one delivered and probably superior quality smile

RKell, here in the forum there are some threads about the topic Radiator. I had a 2010 3.0 Roadster, and the plastic radiator fan was always on in our moderate summer, every 10 minutes on in city traffic.

I don't know if a 2018 roadster still has the same radiator. So for one, the performance might not be sufficient in your summer.

And secondly, the plastic radiator is a time bomb. His self-destruct is pre-programmed. At least more than a few users here in the forum have experienced this. Some of them broke down after two years, some other still work ok after longer years. But it is an issue and people are aware of it. Some already changed before the original radiator was broken.

I swapped the plastic radiator for an aluminum radiator on my 4/4 of 2014 this February. This gives a good and safe feeling. Concerning the total investment you make with the purchase of your excellent choice of car I would immediately install the aluminum radiator. The plastic radiator can burst all of a sudden, I experienced it with a Plus4 Supersport. The aluminium one can lose coolant only slowly in the worst case. That's just my opinion. Perhaps others would agree.

Morgan still use the same plastic tank radiator in all of there classic models. Whilst it cools the 4/4 and +4 adequately, it is a little underspecced for the 3.7, and yes it does fail catastrophically

I've already made 5 replacement and upgraded aluminium radiators for the plastic radiator this week and the orders keep coming....
