Talk Morgan Forums Thread Like Summary - New Morgan Plus Four

There’s a video on YouTube, and stuff on Instagram. The company’s news page is here…

Strangely, and perhaps just the way that video displays it, but (to my eyes) it looks like a diecast toy car rather than an actual one from the front. The back feels similar but perhaps does not give off the same aesthetic feel.

The traditional Morgans have always been handsome cars, both purposeful and beautiful at the same time. I worry that if the corners and angles get smoothed out too much, you'll end up with a pastiche, akin to an older person who has had too many facelifts, nips, tucks and fillers. I do hope that MMC don't get into the cycle of all other car makers of change for the sake of trying to create the desire in the consumer for the need to upgrade to have 'the latest look.'

Personally, I feel the customer who buys a Morgan does so because of the heritage, authenticity and iconic style; a person who wants to step away from the tactics of the mainstream auto makers and relish in the what Morgan has always represented. If what Morgan represents is changing every 3-years, do you lose that authenticity?

I might be the old target audience.

And a nice bottle of Covid wine

There has been so much said about the headlight ring on previous models, the new design is to get over the issue as well as giving a cleaner, fresher, less fussy look.

Interesting vid..? (-:

I received the digital brochure yesterday… hardtops are an option on the new plus four…

In the days that I bought this record I wasn't too worried about words in songs...

I think it'd have a more balanced look with some spot lights in place of the missing indicators, the front is just to empty imho, obviously the new lights output on the road at night should be vastly superior to what has come before in terms of the old halogen based lamps.
