If she finds a buyer, okay, it wouldn't be me. We have such overpriced offers in Germany too.
Here you can get a Plus4 for almost 90.000€. This is stupid.

I was wondering what would happen to values. I think if I were a dealer with stock of new or nearly new Roadsters I'd be just a little nervous. I note that Allon white have a few "new" plus 4 trads which are specified to keep the price down - unlike the Williams offerings which possibly look expensive at nearly £60K compared to the new model?

Talking of old models - did the gold painted chassis, final 20 special plus4s get built? Cannot find any listed for sale - perhaps they were snapped up, although I doubt it somehow in todays market.

I think the new PlusFour will be a big success for Morgan. It looks stunning to my eyes.

I'm off to buy a lottery ticket...…………….

The 89.900€ Plus 4 I posted the link is one of those last 20.

A couple of days ago, I was at a dealer where I saw a yellow M3W in rebuild. The owner is so keen on burgundy trim that he has had the chassis, mountings, and suspension coated to match!

I can see your reasoning Dave. The 3.7 even with 5 link rear has many design faults including way too wide gearbox ratio's, throttle lag, lack of low down torque, narrow footwells and over firm rear suspension. Having sorted the latter though together with a wide range of minor improvements elsewhere, the new Plus Four would have to offer a huge improvement in driving experience, comfort and handling to tempt me.
Having said that can't wait for a test drive

BTW having asked at the KH breakfast meet yesterday, it seems likely the new Plus Four doesn't have ABS despite the press comments. Even the Plus 6 only has it on the front wheels.

ETA: Having just engineered locking bonnet stays for my car, was dissapointed to see a Plus 6 with the same old fully detaching harpoon like OE bonnet stays of the outgoing trads. If MMC can't justify better on a pushing £100k car, can't imagine the Plus Four will be any different frown
