I need to be use to some small difference like: 50 % of the bonnet lateral louvres are missing or they are too much moved to the front The rear wing have an unusual curve (front of the wheel is smaller than above the wheel) There are two strange symmetric but assymetric 3rd stop light instead of the usual central one Except this I am totally in love   From now twice a week a candle on the Euromillion lotto chapelle  A Stingray grey with tan or Ferrari blue sweater with tan .... And you, what will be your favourite combination ?

Just been playing with the configurator £70k to my spec, yet they still want to charge £600 for carpets and £55 for an interior mirror?
I would be interested to know the dimensions compared to the old P4. Lovely car, bet it's a hoot to drive, just too rich for me.

Just looked up the 2020 Toyota Supra 2.0L and the engine spec is identical to the new PlusFour (no surprises there)..Morgan blurb below.
However, the Morgan weighs (as far as can I see) around 400kg's lighter than the Toyota...yet the 0-60mph is identical? Is this to NOT pi** off Toyota I wonder.....
Powertrain, Performance & Emissions
Morgan has built on its long-standing relationship with BMW, choosing to use its 2.0-litre TwinPower Turbo engine. It marks the first time a four-cylinder turbocharged engine has featured in a Morgan car, and produces 255 bhp (190 kW) along with, in the automatic variant, 295 lb ft (400Nm) of torque. In combination with a dry weight of just 1009 kg, it provides effortless performance: 0-62 mph (0-100 kph) takes just 4.8 seconds; top speed is 149 mph (240 kph). The manual variant develops 258 lb ft (350 Nm) of torque, which combined with a dry weight of 1013 kg, results in a 0-62 mph (100 kph) time of 5.2 seconds. Power and top speed match the automatic model.
While headline power and torque figures remain consistent with BMW applications, the engine mapping has been specifically calibrated to allow optimum driveability and response in the Plus Four. As with the Morgan Plus Six, a sport plus mode is available, engaged using a button on the centre column. It sharpens the throttle response, releasing a whole new dynamic character from the car. Overall, engine output is comparable with the outgoing, steel-chassis Morgan Roadster, however, real-world performance and dynamics have been taken to a completely new level.
The all-new Morgan Plus Four also marks the introduction of a manual gearbox for the first time in a CX-Generation platform Morgan. The six-speed gearbox has been optimised to provide a perfectly weighted movement which, combined with its carefully chosen ratios, delivers an engaging driving experience. The gearbox pairs beautifully with the 2.0-litre BMW TwinPower Turbo engine and offers further choice to the customer.
Honesty means doing it right, even when no one is looking!

Does anyone know who is the manual gearbox supplier? BMW, Mazda or Toyota?

Wonderful job MMC and you have surprised a lot of people with this car  . It looks to be a lovely chunky footprint akin to my traditional Plus 8 so perfect  .

£71059 for me. Looks good. Like the idea of the new chassis but less keen on the turbo engine and electronics. My choice would be the modern chassis and the Duratec engine whose greasy bits I would feel more comfortable with.
I do wish MMC every success with the new car. I do wonder if some potential buyers will see it as a pastiche of an old car.

75k. I just wonder how long we will be allowed to drive ICE cars like this. I will need a test drive first but it is nice to dream
