Talk Morgan Forums Thread Like Summary - bonnet belt

Has anyone figured a way to fit a bonnet belt to a (CX) 2025 Plus Four? Thanks.

It’s nice to see such a variety of opinions. I chose the PlusFour precisely because, in my view, it looks like a classic car on the outside but is actually a modern car underneath. That’s exactly what makes this car so fascinating to me. That’s why my PlusFour also has a wooden steering wheel and a wooden dashboard 😎… oh, and of course a bonnet belt 🤩

The belt must be unfastened at the buckle and moved to the left and right to open the hood.

My mounting holes are definitely located under the hood and are therefore not visible when the belt is removed. My car is still in the winter garage and should be coming out by the end of this week. I’ll take some photos then.
Here’s the link to the Morganpark bracket for the belt

I took my Red Baron out of storage today, Nestor.

The mounts in your picture are the same as the ones at Morgan Park.

No vintage illusion or pretentiousness sought here… although I don’t live near the factory.

Everywhere I have been throughout the UK, just about everyone who I’ve encountered that has commented on the car says how nice the car looks and how great the condition is… it’s only when I tell them it’s only a few years old they genuinely seem surprised, to date no one has commented on it being a CX contemporary car made to look vintage.

I bought mine because it put a smile on my face, not because I was steeped in Morgan’s history and motoring past, certainly not for the luggage space, simply because it looked like a nice fun car that didn’t fit the usual and rather bland modern soft top cars in a similar price range. The added benefit of the BMW engine and reliability is what sealed it for me. Why not have a trad with the modern reliability?

Once I bought it, I got rid of the leather & plastic steering wheel for a good old Moto Lita, got the bonnet strap to match the leather suitcase, it already had a walnut dash, now I can’t wait to swap out the horrendous looking bmw auto gear selector for one from Morgan park or the like. I even like the replacement metal indicator stalks.

I’ve also swapped out the reg plate for a shorter version, not to hide the year but why not?!


Agreed… as ever, to their own

Cheers
