Wasn't the last of the traditional cars the Plus 4, 70th edition with some fancy gold painted chassis?

Thanks for that Perry. It confirms that at least some brain cells still work!

There was a Plus 4 Sport - mine was 2011. Flat back - no spare wheel, or sun visors!

Thanks Perry! Great link.
Jon, the Sport edition was enlarged to include the Plus 4 and Roadster sometime in 2010 as far as I can remember. following the success of the 4/4 Sport. As usual with Morgan, dates are foggy. If only production records had been methodical, it would have been possible to spend some time extracting actual evidence, but sadly that was never how Morgan operated.
Even the chassis record for my 2012 Plus 4 was incorrect, after taking weeks to be delivered.

Some time ago I came across what I think was a 4/4 'speedster' at Williams. I describe it as a speedster as it had no screen. It was on aero screens and had no rear panel only a round swage line where one might have had a spare wheel. I see it was on a 16 plate and I saw it in 2021. Internet check confirms it was a 4/4 first reg 2016. Orange with black trim, black wires and mesh grill with headlamp surrounds in black.
Presumably a special build as not fixings for windscreen.
Series 1 Roadster - the original Plus 6!

Presumably a special build as not fixings for windscreen. The orange Speedster has done the rounds for a while. From memory there was one other, which I believe was converted into a normal 4/4. These came after the Aero 8 Speedsters, but I don't believe there were more than two. Thanks for the reminder!
