The Trads don't pretend to be what they are not. The CXs do, and are a nicely wrapped up collection of Trad issues in a much more expensive and complicated package. The CX Plus Four is a modern replica of a trad Plus 4. Without leaks it wouldn't capture the vintage feeling 😂 Harald

Mine’s been faultless, notwithstanding the foibles they all have (drafts and whatnot). Maybe because Morgan built it for themselves. However as is usual for me as I don’t keep cars long, it’s for sale: https://www.pistonheads.com/buy/listing/18793330

Very beautifull car and very good price. Yes indeed. I can't see that waiting long before someone snaps it up.

my two-peneth ...Just back from a 3600 (Morgan miles) tour of Europe. NW UK to black forrest, dolomites, alps, french riviera, pyrenees & back via Santander. countless hairpin bends, up & down mountains, pouring rain to scorching sunshine. 38C in Monaco / Cannes & stop start traffic. my car is a march 22 model plus four & i've had all the faults & more. these were all sorted early on as I use the car & have piled the miles on. faults on this trip ... a sun visor screw came loose. yep I have the Allen key in the glove box. and that's it. you'd think the fan would be going off in the 38C heat & stop start traffic, no, all good. levels checked every two days & all stable. still get the water on the inner sills but the factory reckon they can tighten the doors up. I kind of use the car as a daily (not for work), so boys & girls get those cars out & sort the niggles. unfortunately due to the miles on mine its worth about 50p, but if im not changing it who cares. love the car, so to anyone thinking of getting one maybe a high miler may be the best choice.

The CX Plus Four is a modern replica of a trad Plus 4. Without leaks it wouldn't capture the vintage feeling 😂 Harald It is definitely worth remembering that CX's aren't vintage cars or even classic cars, they are brand new modern vehicles and as such buyers should realistically be able to expect modern standards....... However, as Morgan made their name building a car (the trad) which, by rights, should have ceased production 60 years ago when almost all the other manufacturers gave up on ladder chassis, leaf springs, side screens etc etc..... it's difficult to break the association with 'the past'. The trads just filled a niche for an authentic retro 'continuation' vehicle that had a massive and loyal following of folk who refused to really leave a 'golden age' of British sports cars.......and why not.................. If it's not broken, dont fix it.......😆 I believe that trads will continue to have a large and loyal following long after Pickersleigh Rd is a housing estate..........🤷🏻♂️ 🇬🇧🇬🇧

I use my Plus Four as my daily driver in whatever weather the South East of Ireland throws at us! I find it great (after copious bits of Neoprene made it leakproof!!) Long may it continue
