Talk Morgan Forums Thread Like Summary - Plus Four vs Lotus Emira - Evo

Surprising???

The motoring press have given glowing reports on the six and 4 for the last four years it's the detractors and some who have not even driven one who wont accept a reality check. When I go out in the Mog I have a choice of two cars mostly bumbling about the lanes taking in the vibe or get the paddles out and its a super car. And soon to be a fairly rare collectors item and 40mpg .....

But wait… Morgan actually makes good sports cars? Cars that in a competitive head to head might actually be preferable to other brands. You mean to say the company might actually have a plan and know how to make a decent car? I thought Morgan was heading the wrong direction and its days were numbered? Now I’m confused. 🫤

I'm in the fortunate position to own a CX Plus Four and a First Edition Emira V6 manual - both in green : )

I love the looks of the Lotus and the sound it makes - it gets equally positive reactions from people but when choosing which one to drive, I usually opt for the Morgan. It's not as brutally fast as the Lotus but even with the original suspension(!) is still super fun to drive. The gear change on the Lotus is awful - really notchy - which makes spirited driving a bit of a chore.
