Hi

I am thinking of changing my 2019 4/4 for a 2022 Le Mans CX model.
I have noticed a few come up for sale already and I am concerned about any potential problems I might find.
I would appreciate any feedback from any CX Plus Four owners.

Thank you.

The nice thing about Man-Maths is that there are no GCSE or A-Level exams in them (or the equivalent in Deutschland, North America, the Netherlands, Australia, etc); therefore, no one can tell you that you're doing it wrong!

In our own way, we each come to our own formula and which ever way we come to it, we can justify it and give ourselves top marks for making the numbers work in our favour rtm

So Trad, CX, CXV, Areo, M3W or Super 3, each owner comes up to 100% in their own personal way... well, at least until a day when they want to change and then the rules of Man-Maths are rewritten to suit the decision for that day! laugh2

To be honest, I can't really quantify the joy of driving my 4/4, but I did the math anyway, and I come up with 93% 😎

Yep, an airbag is a good thing to have without a doubt. On the other hand, I never used to worry about such things in all the years before airbags were a thing, so why start now? My so-far-successful strategy of avoiding having a crash has worked for the last 45 years or so.

Modern Morgan owners seem less and less inclined to do their own maintenance, and for them the DIY argument is probably not particularly appealing. But for me being able to look after it myself is definitely at least half the fun. I'm with Flyfisher and Dave, I'm sticking with my Trad.

But then given that I haven't got a hope in hell of ever being able to afford to buy a CX anyway, I would say that, wouldn't I? smile
