Hello together,
I just wanted to introduce myself and thank you for welcoming me to this forum.
I am from Germany and my wife always wanted to drive a classic car. I was actually never that enthusiastic about it. Then a few weeks ago we had a test drive with a Morgan Plus Four. I was thrilled with the vehicle and it is a great compromise between a classic car and a modern vehicle. So we ordered a red Morgan PlusFour which we are now eagerly awaiting. My wife likes the look and I like the technology.
I look forward to the exchange here and ask certainly many (stupid) questions and.... sorry for my English

Clemens,
your English is far better than my German, and I lived in Wesel NRW through the 1990s.... Where do you call home?
The PlusFour is a super car, modern engineering, classic looks. I have a 2014 Aero Plus 8.
This place is friendly and knowledgeable... so welcome and don't worry about asking questions, we all started at the same place....

Welkommen
as Peter says your English will exceed our German. I lived in Holzkirchen , Freistaat Bayern in 85 to 89.
Please post photos of your car.
There is no question too stupid.

Do worry about language , we can sort it out , or there are several other German members who I am sure will welcome the opportunity to help you absolutely necessary.
The Plus Four is indeed a wonderful car, are you going for the manual or the auto gearbox?
There are no stupid questions here , they prevent stupid mistakes! There is a lot of collective experience here about the newer CX cars as well as the traditional models. Ask away.

A warm welcome to the forum. When do you expect to take delivery? What colour have you chosen?
If you can find a way to get to the factory whilst your car is in build (your dealer should be able to help with timing), it is very well worthwhile.
And as others have said, your English is a lot better than my German!

Welcome Clemens, a great choice of car and good luck with the waiting.
We enjoyed working (Bundesflugversicherung) in Zeven for !976/78 it was a great springboard for visits to Bremen/Hamburg and Luneberg Heide.

Also welcome from me. And "Moin" from northern Germany.
I bought my 4/4 because I wanted an old looking car that is usable for longer trips.
So the Ford A convertible from 1939 in which I was originally interested no longer came into consideration.
Last week I had a look at some PlusFour at MorganPark. Nice modern cars!
And yes here is the right place for your questions!
And as last hint: For me "DeepL" is a great assistance...

Welcome from me too, in Cologne, Clemens. It's a special mixture that your wife likes the aesthetics and you like the technique. I would bet that you personally will become more and more fond of the shape and design of the Plus Four. You will certainly tell us where in Germany you live. A great choice of model, your Plus Four. As soon as it is delivered, everyone here on TM will be looking forward to lots of nice pictures. Enjoy the anticipation!
