That looks like a good one, if I was in the market for a Plus 6 I would take this one in preference for the gearbox and soundtrack alone in almost any colour but red..
Almost without exception the Plus Six is not winning people over although on paper it is the superior car, people are forgetting these cars are all about emotions and very little about practicalities.

The Plus Six will pull in a new demographic, but its success will depend on whether they buy into the Morgan experience. A glut of low mileage hardly used Plus Sixes will affect residuals.
That Plus 8 is my colours, but somehow, Corsa Red doesn't suit the shape as well as the Trads. And I dislike black wheels.

Deano's Green car, Brian's in dark Metallic Blue and JB62's in Black are absolutely stunning, the colour makes all the difference for me.

I'm not keen on the red either, but black wheels?.... ![[Linked Image]](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/48711014612_a59554248b_k.jpg) Mog at Home by Jonathan Jenkins, on Flickr

I think the black wires add to the vintage look Jon. Talking of wires have you gone electric already

Wasn't that particular car Morgans first attempt at going electric.. Unfortunately the mileage was limited due to the length of the lead !

I suspect that this car is a Morgan employees car, certainly Graham Chapman haas/had one that looks exactly like that.
I feel it is about £5k over priced, even though it is less than 10k miles.
Black spoked wheels look good, bot sure about black Aeromax wheels.

Yes - I think knock £10k off the price, change the wheels, and respray it - which will probably all cost another £10k!
