Peters comment about selling Tarka and ordering a Plus6 made me think about selling the S2 and having the Coupe and a Plus6. However the gap on the upgrade would be much larger and I suspect that would make my pension come out in a red rage. It has never forgiven me for the current situation and sulks constantly.
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

And there’s me thinking that you were an out and out V8 fan Peter 🙄 I am.... The BMW straight 6, even with the "clever" back box" (which has been replaced under warranty) sounds anaemic. Mercedes AMG do a much better job at making a V6 sound like a slightly hysterical V8! BTW I'm selling the BMW, going back to Mercedes with a bright yellow AMG A35 Even if I could afford the Plus 6 I really cannot see what it would give me that Tarka doesn't give me. And it wouldn't have Aeromax wheels!! As Aeroman has said, it is a keeper. Instead I'm spending money upgrading Tarka: - The lock covers are away at the trimmer being covered with matching leather
- I will get the LED headlamps that Aeroman has....
- I've finally worked out a way to fit a wind blocker to the roll bar:watch this space... thanks "Will the Customer" for the idea!
That is, unless I get a big lottery win, when I'll get a M3W to go with Tarka....!!

Chester (Yann) mentioned it and I didn’t give it much credence due to his general negativity about Morgan. But on looking at the photos I have to say he is correct🙄
Just where is there room on the dash or under it, for a radio? I can’t believe that they haven’t designed a dash to include a radio🙄. And please everyone don’t say that ICE is wasted in a Morgan...it was in my Trads but this car is competing in a different market and it’s needed!

The stereo is listed as a standard feature on the price list. Could be a misprint..Aren't these two cars test / show cars though ?

I've just priced up a Plus 6 as I'd want it to replace Tarka. £81,686 collected from the factory. Tarka is worth possibly £70,000 So, just £12,000 to find. Decisions...decisions...... Looking forward to your test drive report Peter !

I suspect it is the same system that is offered in the S5 Aero. An amplifier and speakers, with a range of inputs. Me? I want a Bluetooth enabled DAB Radio, that is all. The lack of one could be a deal breaker.

The radio wouldn’t be incorporated in the dash screen gizmo would it?
