Enjoyed a good few hours drive this morning. slightly overcast but dry, fresh 4c but closer to zero with wind chill factored in, with the almost obligatory Wallings ice cream stop. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2024/12/03/Wallings-3122024.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2024/12/03/Wallings-2.jpg) Nice car, nice ice cream....!

I just cannot get used to the car not having a spare and a luggage rack - sorry . As I have been away from the marque for a while can you tell me why the new plus 6 never or cannot have a spare wheel ?? Sorry to be so unknowledgable. MM
PS What’s happening in South Korea. Daughter recently got back from the country. Glad she is home. Rear- and frontwheels have different widths on the PliusSix!

We just have to much luggage to take with us!

Different widths should not prevent you from having a spare wheel. My trad Plus 4 has a 165R15 spare wheel (to save weight). It has the almost the same circumference as 195/65R15 or 205/60R15 wheels.

Enjoyed a good few hours drive this morning. All the same models but some have that certain something. The clean look is beautiful. In the photo it's a wonderful red. I had two Morgan without a spare wheel, but in red it just looks great.

Visited my mother today, our family station wagon was losing coolant somewhere, so I drove the 4/4 (I was looking forward to it). But it was one of the worst journeys I've ever had. 140 km in dreary drizzle with strong gusts of wind of up to 100 km/h, so very careful and slow because the 4/4 is a flyweight. I can't always just talk about the chocolate rides in this thread.

I do prefer the cleaner lines, , This one has attracted more compliments than my other Morgans, When I stopped for petrol the other week I pulled up behind a family of Americans on holiday and I let the sons have a sit in etc. No-one seemed to mind even though we blocked a couple of the pumps for about 20 minutes.

Only a short drive in the 4/4, just to get the temperatures up. A bit chilly, but always enjoyable.  Bud 4/4 - Stanley

Simon that’s good to read well done 😎 Rich. 👍 Thanks. I even took time to replace the piece of string, I use to hold the bonnet open! The new piece is very classy!! Bud 4/4 - Stanley
