Congratulations Morgan....it looks a worthy successor to the Plus4. So much more balanced style and proportions wise than the Plus Six which I think looks chunky and awkward....funny how the Aero Plus 8 carried it off for some reason. And none of those awful modern looking vents that the Plus Six has.
Price wise the basic car in manual, standard paint and leather and those rather nice alloys hits the spot in my view, all I’d want extra is a walnut dash and centre tunnel and driving lights although I baulk at the price of the latter. Funny how a tonneau is not listed.
Much that I like the car and admire Morgan for building it, I’m not sure I’d ever have one though. I came into Morgan wanting a modern and more reliable equivalent of a classic car and I think I’d end up thinking that I was driving a pastiche of a traditional Morgan and certainly not a classic car...my 4/4 and 3.0 Roadster always got me into classic events. Put a modern alloy body with hints of Morgan styling on that chassis and drivetrain together with Morgan trimming skills and I’d certainly be interested.

A whisker under £70k for mine. Oh bugger. I only won £50 on the Premium Bonds this month, so a bit of a gap. Ah well, there's always next month.

MMC has just announced that the 28 most common posters on TM will be gifted with a new Plus Four in their personal equipment. One moment please, I must find the link again.

.....The wire wheels as standard are a big factor in maintaining this link to the old. ......
Silver wire wheels cost £1194. Alloys are the standard wheels. Wow I would get the black ones - stripped and re-painted/powder coated for half of that?
Honesty means doing it right, even when no one is looking!

I think it looks great. Also has more than enough performance for the road. Great move by the factory. Nick
