Hi Tom

Your seats look great. Maybe you could post a photo of the full seat as others on here interested in buying a new Plus Four would be interested. I was surprised that the first Plus Four seats had some adverse comments as the standard seats on the later trads like mine are extremely comfortable. I did sit in a Plus Six and thought that the seat bases seemed rather 'flat' compared to mine.

Having only partial leather interiors on new Morgans is more in line with mainstream luxury cars. When I bought my Morgan I was surprised that ALL the interior was leather as standard including centre console, sills, door panels and backs of the seats. I would imagine the new owners of Morgan thought the same and that maximising profits and extras was their priority on the Plus Four!

The leather centre tunnel is perfect!
Black wheels have many advantages, one being that they don't show brake dust!

I have to stop looking at all these new CX Chassis cars. They are SO good looking.
But my Aero Plus 8 gives me everything and more. it is just the appeal of a new toy!

That does look rather splendid.

Must resist temptation. Must resist ......

Actually not a problem - Mrs F seems quite confident in her abilities to resist all forms of automotive temptation.

My experience with black wheels is very different, they just never looked clean despite my best efforts. Stainless is my choice because they are so easy to keep on top of.

Yes indeed - I'll keep away from black wheels when I order mine.

Sometimes I do a quick cleaning.
That looks pretty good with the chrome wheels on TwoTone.
But that doesn't work with MattMog's black once; looks even worse than not cleaned.

I dont have a particular problem with keeping black wire wheels clean as I don't tend to go out in wet conditions and the car isnt used much in winter.

Admittedly wire wheels arent the easiest thing to clean whatever colour they are painted. It is only the same as having Black paintwork on a car though. It is difficult to keep a Black car clean but less so on a weekend only car and Black paintwork on a car looks superb when clean.

From Williams I see. Whats the logic behind detailing a new car? Surely it should be detailed by the factory?

Any plans for the steering wheel?
