Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Morgan Plus Four, Supersport & Plus Six (CX & CXV Generation Vehicles) The Plus Six 'bugs me'

Muddy fields, ice and snow - I’d rather no ABS. In fact I think the last Defenders had switchable ABS because JLR had come to the same conclusion?

In everyday driving , whatever the vehicle , I’m not a good enough driver not to want all the help I can get to safely swerve or stop to avoid hurting someone.

I am amazed how many of you drive your Morgans in mud and snow. Must be an English thing like driving with the top down in a downpour

Don`t mix up ABS with ESC.
Doing better than ESC when cornering is only possible if you have four brake pedals;-)

Saved many lives!

The new PlusSix really bugs me

It bugs me that I haven’t got the space nor the funds to get one

Nothing like a 'new mistress' eh!

I'm guessing 10% of us will have one in around 3 years time once the manual gearbox is in place and a decent sound coming out the rear as to me they are deal breakers

It will be interesting to see if they produce a 4 seater version on the CX platform .

Steve Morris told me, in a brief encounter a few weeks ago, that there was no manual box option available for that engine. So it may take some time.

Popped into Williams today, sat in the new PlusSix. A couple of observations from me and verbal input from the Williams sales guy (nice chap!):

I am just over 6' tall and had to have the seat one notch forward - i.e. closer to the steering wheel. I believe you could therefore be 6'.3" or so before leg room becomes an issue?
I was surprised by the quality "feel" - the doors close - with a "thunk" that many VM's would like!
I did not feel as though the seat was too high?

Overall very impressed and cannot wait for a drive

The Williams employee stated, that their demonstrator cannot be sold, until their next car - arrives from Morgan (they are looking to order a Gun metal grey with mulberry interior - all "launch models are now allocated" - so normal colours can be placed).

Williams have sold 4 - PlusSix's only one to an existing Morgan customer the rest are "new to Morgan" owners.

I thought the last fact very interesting.......
