Not sure if it's been bought up before but I note the new plus 6 has central locking.
Does this mean unlike the current models our (future) pride and joy will be at risk from hackers attempting to gain unlawful entry?
Will Morgan offer the option of a lead lined key holder ?

That’s looney, they are best left unlocked to save the soft top 😂

I agree with you regarding to let her open to prevent violence. But concerning my insurance they would expect that I lock the door, regardless how ridiculous it is with a Morgan. Otherwise it may happen that they would not pay in case of a theft.

Mine has no locks, and I love it that way.

It happens every now and then that a stolen car is driven cruelly, perhaps in the end with an accident. And then the thieves flee. Then you can see from the wreck if the car was locked or if it was open.
I know that this has only symbolic meaning for a Morgan, but the insurance is interested in something like this because they are looking for circumstantial evidence not to have to pay.

Likewise and no exterior door handles.
That confuses a few people!

Mine also has no exterior door handles but it does have locks, you just flip the little lug next to the interior handle. I suppose that's what is called keyless entry?

Returning to the subject, surely it's the keyless systems that are susceptible to hacking, isn't it? As far as I can see the +Six only has remote locking.
