Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Morgan Plus Four, Supersport & Plus Six (CX & CXV Generation Vehicles) Have you driven your CX today?

Nice. But I suspect your number plate is illegal, or perhaps in the wrong place to confuse the speed cameras.

Really nice colour combination, they are great cars, a real step change for the trads and just as enjoyable if not more so.

Same colour as my Plus Four. Definitely a step up from trads. Use it and enjoy it.
Just back from Scotland and a great driving trip from motorways to Scottish A roads that morph into single track with passing place. Auto makes driving easy with paddles if desired, good for downhill downshifts for better engine braking!

I finally got to really put my Nitrons to the test yesterday. Ms. CLPlusFour was away for training over the weekend, so I was able to push the Red Baron to its limits on a trip to Konstanz—there on the highway, back on small country roads.
It’s a different car with the new suspension.

Clemens do you just have retro fitted shocks.

Sorry, John, I don't quite understand your question. I ordered the Nitron update through my dealer and had it installed.
Does that answer your question?

Yes I wondered if you fitted them after purchase as the nitron pack on a new car includes an anti roll bar but that can't be fitted later easily

So im trying to understand how good a car is fitted with nitrons as an aftermarket fitment

I have nothing but good things to say. The car feels much more stable when taking corners at high speeds. On uneven surfaces, the car doesn't sway. I hope I've expressed that correctly.

Thanks. I was very impressed by how the Supersport handles. Maybe time to flash the cash

I had the nitrons 'retro fitted' over 12 months ago. A much improved ride. the main difference is that the ride is far more composed. less crashy, less floaty, & far more comfortable. these should be standard fit.
on a side note, I did the AW driver training at Stafford yesterday. max 4 on the course. an old small airstrip. the main outcome was that if you're ever caught out on a tighter than expected bend you can can safely get out of it. I spent a lot of time braking hard into a 180 corner then flooring it out with the tail sliding. absolutely hilarious & im no expert driver but it showed me just how capable the car is. it is a 'sports car'. it was actually quite difficult to lose the rear ,you had to be really abusive. its given me a lot of more confidence in the car, if it slides at the rear its easy to manage. A great day, im sure the nitrons helped in some way, but my newish tyres are looking a bit rough. fun for both boy racers & everyone else.
