I'm delighted with my new Plus Four. Wouldn't trust myself in a Plus Six. I think to drive one of those safely you need to be properly trained to handle such a car. 0 - 60 mph in 5 seconds is more than enough for me. The thing I love most is the reactions from other people, and the mutual waves exchanged with other Morgan drivers. Getting my own Morgan was my dream come true.

loved your report,i owned an old plus 8 which sadly i sold,ilove morgans but couldnt afford another so brought a bmw 240i with the b58 engine for a third of the cost of the plus 6,its a serious piece of kit especially in the wet,if i had a choice i would buy a plus 4,my time in the bmw with all the handling gizmos can get a bit edgy to say the least a +6 without the handling tech would bring my blood pressure up to its limit

Having owned a Plus 4 and now a PlusSix I am delighted to say that I too appreciate the difference. Whilst both are beautiful cars the PlusSix has that extra presence the wider body and wings bring, never mind the awesome performance. The driving experience is just thrilling, roll on some better weather for more hood down days out.

Think I'll stick with the Plus 4 like I said in the last video. For me, I'd be able to use more of the power, more of the time and still stay reasonably legal. It also fits in better with the drive down to the south of France, never going near a motorway, taking your time thing I'd want to do with a Morgan. As for having it as an auto, no, not for me. Great car, I'm sure but not for me.

I own a new Plus Four and was advised not to purchase the Plus Six. . My previous car was a Ferrari F430 Spider, yet the Plus Four is fast enough for me. I also prefer the 8 speed auto; faster and yet more economical. Horses for courses. But I will keep my Morgan for some time and naturally paid for it with my own money. Unlike motoring journos :) I do however agree that the rev counter should be in front of the driver, but there is insufficient room for it.

I have a MY22 Plus Four auto which is superb. I previously had a Plus 4 (2 litre Duratec) and then a Roadster (3.7 litre Mustang V6). The Roadster had an Aero Racing ECU and produced over 300bhp but the Plus Four is faster. I think it's a pity that you didn't try the auto as it is so much better than the manual. It has about 50 more torques than a manual and pulls like a train especially in Sport+. I have also had a decent drive of a Plus 6 and it definitely has it for comfort and ride. I loved it. However for the traditional looks it has to be a Plus Four.

I've a 70th Anniversary model 4/4 with a Duratec engine as well as older Plus 4's ('57 and '63). All great. For me the traditional chassis car with an engine around 2 litres is just right. More power isn't needed and may cause you to come a cropper. Some people are buying the new hyper cars without the skills required to control them in poor conditions. Meantime, my very first car was a Ford engined F-type Morgan three wheeler too which you used to be able to drive at 16. I've driven them for - ouch - 50 years! I'd go with a Duratec 1.8 or 2 litre car, or the great TR engine or Crossflow in an earlier car, either on twin 40 DCOE carbs (which sound great too).

I think I'd have to go with the plus four at first. I'm itching to own another manual car, and I probably couldn't forgive myself if I got my Morgan in an auto. Plus, I'd look forward to ringing the car out to its limit without having to go on a track. I own two BMWs at the moment, both with the B58 engine, and it's properly quick for a 4cyl, so I bet it's plenty powerful in a car that small. These cars make me smile more than any other car I can think of. I was able to visit the factory with my school about ten years ago now, and it's wonderful that they've made such updates (the CX platform) while still keeping all of that heritage. I live out in California now, so it's a bit of a wait to get these new cars out here, but my name will definitely be at the top of the list.

It’s really difficult to form an opinion without driving them personally, but your videos give a great impression of the pros and cons of both. My view may change if I drove them, but I must admit that I’m leaving towards the 4. My current car has a B58 and it’s a superb engine, but I find it’s often a little too much power to really exploit on the open road. In a lighter car I just feel that it would be too much. I would also want a manual and the flappy paddles and BMW drive selector are a turn off in the 6. Both lovely cars though and to be honest I’d love either in the garage for a Sunday blast!

I've never driven a car configured like that, but I'd think that shifting mid-turn would be awkward. As a sports car guy from way back (TR4, Sprite), I'm so glad Morgan is still building these cars and so wish I could indulge. BTW, that parking lot you were in would make a wonderful weekend "cars and coffee" spot. ;)

Hi Ped I knew after Part 1 you were hooked😉 Before starting to watch this evening, my bet was you would choose the Plus 6 despite the auto box. Who said power corrupts. As I mentioned earlier you ought to go for it and order your new second car, but maybe you are too attached to Ruby Roadster. If TG was not sure you sell the idea on minimal depreciation. Having enjoyed my Plus 8 over many years (old tec chassis & Rover V 8 , had to go one better with Aero 8, bonded Ali chassis & BMW V8 376bhp plus manual box.😘😘 As always treat with respect in adverse conditions. You must have a Morgan in your life, but do not leave it too late, otherwise you will be looking at a further step up in build quality, use ability and practicality in sports car guise as a daily - Porsche Carrera. Needless to say my Morgan friends were disappointed when I left the family.😥

Would be happy with testing either car, but this is where my love of motoring collides with my disability and lifestyle. It is so frustrating when you love cars and motoring, but feel left on the “outside” when you cannot simply jump into a car when you need hand controls and adaptions just for a test drive, and manufacturers are not going to spend money to do so on the off chance of maybe gaining a sale. I guess this is something that is not going to change in my remaining years either.

Excellent reviews, thanks. I have owned 4 Morgans so far, none recently, but two classic 4/4 and two +8. I much preferred the Rover V8 3.5 and 3.9 Plus 8,; was for me a far more natural fast sporting and touring car and enjoyed the 'give it some welly' speed .. have had many classic sportscar 2 seaters including every model the Panther Car company made. I drove my Morgans all year round in all weathers but also owned several classic TVR along side them so swapped between those and two different Porsche. This year after some many years in SUV and other more 'mundane' vehicles it was time for me to go back to the factory and did another tour. In the past I watched the build of one of my Morgan Plus 8 which was fascinating. I rarely if ever would drive a Morgan with the roof up, and never owned a hardtop. After my drives this year in Malvern it's clear that I agree with you that the Plus 6 is the one to order but I also found the Plus 4 to be a fabulous driver's car and the exhaust pops and notes are wonderful. Like you, I need the extra 'ooomph' and the acceleration thrill. Of course prices have escalated since my last ownership and my current personal spec was quoted at about £110,000 (many extras) for a Plus 6 so they are 'serious money' now. Nothing beats the feel and 'gentleman style' of these classic motor vehicles; you cannot drive one without experiencing proper 'motoring' not just A-B travel as in mass produced transit cars. I narrowly missed out on buying one of the last Morgan Aero cars when I was there and ideally I'd get one of those convertibles if they still made them as I love the blend of classic 1930s and futuristic that these embodied, but I am not keen on buying pre-used cars and prefer the feel, smell and exclusivity of a tailor made new car on delivery day. That leather is wonderful but I'm sticking to the classic wood dash and accessories not the body colour. I also miss the chrome bumpers and think the front and especially the rear looks 'unfinished' without them and without a spare wheel on the back instead of that vacant looking grilled surface. Unlike you, I prefer spoked chrome or body coloured wheels not the modern alloys.

it's always fun getting into a small British convertible that's not been converted. I'm 6' 2" and I used to _"fall",_ left leg first into my MG Midget. Exiting was more of a desperate struggle using any fixed surface as a lever to heave yourself out. I'm like you when it comes to wire wheels. When they're gleaming and clean, they look the business. But they take a crap load of looking after to keep them clean so I'd opt for the alloys too. And I'd probably got for the Plus 4. It's power is more accessible for more of the time. Though I'd still opt for the BMW autobox.

And you’re right it does need the spare wheel on the back as it looks slightly odd. It’s a shame we couldn’t see under the bonnet and see a few drive by shots this time though. It would have looked good with that invisible selfie stick thingy.

I think for me I would choose the 4 Pete , Both of them look Quite forgiving when you want to press on the power , Especially in slippy conditions ? Epic videos . I would have one alone just for the smiles 👍👍😁😁

Not sure if I’m pleased to see how up to date they are, or disappointed that they aren’t really old school. A bit uncomfortable on this fence!!! 🤔

I owned a Moggy for 10 years in the 70’s and an Elise and now some Porsches. 73 I am now looking for a new car to excite me. The two in the frame are the new Lotus and a Morgan. What a dilemma? Any comments to help would be appreciated

I think the Emira with the V6 will do the most of what of you might want.

Tickle the throttle ha ha , bit greasy out there for you . It looks great ,shame it’s damp out . 👍 Got to be the 6 for me 😊

Great videos! I'm with you on the 6 over a 4. Just been on the configurator and specced one to £106,000. Yikes! And that doesn't include a knurled aluminium dash, which I would love to add. Better get saving!

Always loved the Morgan, but wouldn't be able to shoehorn myself in with a hardtop, if in a carpark :) Was bad enough in my early 20's with a MG BGT.

Yes that one seems more grown up. Not sure I agree re the paddles, when did you last have to work out where you hands are to use the indicator? The "solid" paddles are always where you left them. Also the burbles on over run, are they really natural? it sounds a bit to manufactured for Morgan to me. And finally, if a wooden gear knob is ok in a Carrera GT then it would be ok in a Morgan, ditch that BMW thing and fit a switch in a nice piece of turned Ash.

Another great great vid Mr P. Shame no manual ......Or are you going to be doing a new video next week showing a few that were made but kept hush hush...? I get the impression you will see what can go to be able to accommodate one....I would pick the 6

Great two part video! I would most definitely choose the Plus Six. You mentioned the price of how much it would cost to have a Plus Four monthly, but what about the Plus Six? I’m not sure if you mentioned it, but how much would it cost to have a Plus Six monthly?
@PetrolPed2 жыл бұрын
A difficult question to answer. Depends on the spec you choose, size of deposit, PCP or HP and length of term. Quite a bit more 😬

I'd prefer the Plus 4 as I don't do track days and I think for the roads up here in Scotland it's got more than enough power. With the difference in price between the 4 and 6 I'd in a few thousand and get a MV Augusta Brutale

Plus Four for me! I consider the Plus Six too scary for me. Quit understand why the factory added ESP to both, especially the Plus Six. Consider swiping my 4/4 for a Plus Four!

I'd be happy with a PlusZero. No engine whatsoever, just sitting in the drive while I looked at it all day
