We bought our 2019 P6 Launch Edition from the Morgan factory with 3000 miles on it and with £5K of upgrades including Comfort seats thrown in for the sale. It was a Morgan development car which meant that all the recall issues had been fixed before the sale by the factory. We purchased it in late summer 2021 for what I considered an excellent price and it has so far been a joy to own and totally trouble free up to now. No recurring faults needing dealer visits or any other issues apart from a sticky sliding window.
I don't think the newest CXs are worth the money but an early car like ours that is not plagued with issues has to be a great buy at circa £72K IMO.

Hi all, new to the forum but have always loved Morgans since I was young. In fact my first experience driving a fast rear wheel drive car was a Morgan Plus 8 over 20 years ago! Not supercar fast by todays standards but accelerating up the gears is an experience I have never forgotten!
I am considering buying a new Plus 6 and was looking for advice on whether I can expect or negotiate any discounts from the list price? Appreciate any feedback.
Thanks! Welcome IndianaJon, I suspect you will have plenty to choose from with some good discount prices to be found.... Just do your research and be aware of what you are buying in terms of quality and product support. Take a look here as an example of some value..... http://www.talkmorgan.com/ubbthreads.php/topics/776451/re-tarka-is-for-sale#Post776451 I suspect that with stock levels at dealers being high, and the sun shining, they'd like to turn metal into cash! There may be deals to be done, which is newish territory for Morgan dealers. & while Peter's lovely Plus 8 may well be gone, it would be remis of me not to mention that my lovely Aero Series 5 auto is now available for newish Plus 6 money (negotiable, of course!) -- factory-fresh paint -- SSL suspension -- Carbon Hardtop -- Will
Formerly Aero S5 #80

I have recently gone for the coil overs and it does make a difference, starting to enjoy the car now, getting some miles in after the “stop drive” last year. I think mine (delivered March 21) was one of the first with the comfort seats, however it doesn’t have pump up bolsters. Pleased to say no overseer light or electrical gremlins like the previous car. Hi Mike, we also have upgraded the coil overs on the Plus Six, its makes it a much nicer car to drive overall.

Makes a difference to the ride hight also, don't appear to be catching so many speed bumps.

Hi Aerotaff, I hope all goes well for you. At least your car has a few more miles under its bonnet, so if there had been any issues lurking they should have shown by now. We are getting our car back again tomorrow.. We still have an ongoing issue, but that is waiting on replacement parts that is nothing to do with the MMC.
