It's the Morgan way now. They discovered a long time ago that limited editions sell well, and no more Plus Sixes won't hurt residuals. I don't imagine the numbers sold were that high over 4 years, so it's a good thing I guess. If they announce the replacement as a limited run special they will sell fast.

Looking at the rest of the fenders in the photo, I'm afraid it won't look good when someone needs a new Plus Six fender in four years. A model that was built for such a short time and doesn't share the fender with any other model.

Oh gauwwd, are you all saying the plus 6 is a goner ? Still I was starting to err on the side of the plus 4 or do up my plus 8 anyway.

Sort of but with more styling from the midsommer Oh, I hope not! ... I appreciate I'm nowhere near their target demographic (or philosophy!🙂) ... but, interesting as it was for a strictly limited run, there's nothing.... front, back or side ... from the style that I think would improve the mainstream Morgan design.

Personally I would like to see the Plus Six replaced with an 'entry level' model, selling for less than the Plus Four.

|I really hope the factory has learnt a lesson and whatever comes next is more simple, more 'affordable' and more reliable.
I know that perhaps one off's or low production models are good for magazine features and mega rich collectors, but what keeps the lights on and the workforce employed is a 'volume', good value sports car that appeals to the huge number of Morgan enthusiasts/buyers.
Another high cost, low volume, highly complicated, ultra niche sports car is something that the world probably doesn't need, and the factory can't afford to produce.
The money and patience will run out and the Italians will sell MMC on, to god knows who, and before you know it another British manufacturer is gone..............🤷🏻♂️
Come on MMC, use your huge pointless team of polo neck wearing millennial designs to come up with something that people want.......
