I have quite long legs for my height (Gambalunga means long leg  ). I put the seat all the way back and found it was too far for comfort and brought it forward 2 clicks. The luggage space behind the seats did not seem all that different to me and they had two Morgan leather overnight bags in there. I suspect there is a fraction more space but not much.  Nice hat

And the sweater is incredibly tuned to the Trad in the background. This must be a posed photo.

One thing IS certain... this will be one quick Morgan!
I recently sold my BMW M140i with the same drivetrain... it was bonkers fast, under 10 seconds to 100mph... and that's weighing in at over 1500kg as well!
No driver aids will add to the excitement... personalty however it's also not for me. I am not sure if this 'fits' the Morgan 'feeling'... but it will certainly attract new customers to the brand I am sure.
Which bodes well for the future of the marque.

Great Photo Peter, how does it feel to sit in compared to your Plus 4? Are the seats wider?

i'm confused myself. looking at MMC's own site you'd think there's more difference between a 4/4 and a Plus4 than a Plus4 and Plus6. i so wanted to love it and consider it for myself, but in the flesh.... it's a Plus8. i've just looked at wikipedia and Parkers, everyone quotes different widths! From Morgan Motor Co Data Length +8 = 4150, +6 = 3890, Roadster = 4010 Width +8 = 1840, +6 = 1746, Roadster = 1720 So, the +6 is shorter than both the Plus 8 and Roadster, narrower than the +8 but wider than the Roadster. Oh dear, Peter, now you've posted this I know it WILL fit in my garage

Is that good, or bad? or Both, as the new Roadster's only 9 months old, it will not be an easy discussion with Mrs M

I think you should give the early buyers enough time to shake out the teething troubles. Two years should be about right.
