I’d still buy a Six - but is very true that it’s simply “nuts” that Morgan can’t guarantee to make a watertight car. My old Plus 4, with old-style roof, was very good at keeping dry inside. It was often driven in wet weather, and often parked outside, but with a storm cover.

Sorry, I didn't mean the act of purchase is nuts, just the selling of a leaky car smile

No offence taken Tim, but I must be nuts to buy a leaky car. TBH, I haven't yet been out in heavy rain in the Six, perhaps mine won't leak; we'll see!

My P4 doesn't leak in heavy rain. It gets the very rare drop coming in over the side screens but is effectively water tight

In our 2014 4/4, the water ingress can be such that, eventually, I cannot hear the engine over the complaints from the passenger seat. I usually use this as a stimulus to stop the car and put the roof up. Then the car is almost leak free.

A chum bought a new +4 in 2007. That didn't leak at all. He should have rejected the car as not being of Morgan Merchantable quality - because a lot of other things went wrong with it.

Had two Plus Fours and had to have a tea towel or similar to hand when it rained to help with the drips but the Plus six is water tight.

Our Plus 4 has never leaked.and we brought it home new from BHM, in monsoon rain, so I knew it was a good sign.
