I was very sceptical about the new car, but I also have to say, that this car looks great on the first pics, I saw. They did a really great job. I like it much more than the six. But on the other side it became really expensive in my view. Even if it is unfair to compare it to the old +4, the price is going up from about € 60´ to € 85´ to 90´ in Germany, I will have a look on the car in the near future and I am definitely a potential buyer.

Well done, MMC..!

Just to put some context into the pricing. Honda have announced the latest version of the Jazz today - starting price £18.5k - now that is expensive. When my 4/4 was new, it cost 3 x Honda Jazz. The new Plus Four costs 3.4 x Honda Jazz - making the Plus Four a bargain. Will explain this to  when she returns. Anyone prepared to give odds on the man maths holding up?

Just had a good look at all the photos. It looks very appealing and, dare I say, not much different to the outgoing model. This is a huge credit to MMC as it will make the car more enticing to us “Traditionalists”. The wire wheels as standard are a big factor in maintaining this link to the old. However, I just hope that the handbrake works! When I owned (briefly for just 3 weeks, before handing it back) my ARP4 the central handbrake just did not hold the car on any slope more than about 5 degrees. Owners started taking a block of wood around with them just to chock a wheel when parked up. It (the block of wood) wasn’t even an optional extra!

Silver wire wheels cost £1194. Alloys are the standard wheels.

My calculations work out to 100% in favour !

Or, controversially, an electric version with a range of 200 to 250 miles, and recharge rate of 150 KWPH or more. Let's hope so, I'd flippin' love one.
