Picking up my Morgan Plus Six from the Morgan factory in Malvern, UK

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

A little bit of our journey, the views over malvern and of course the all important unveiling of my Morgan Plus Six. If you haven’t yet seen it, check out my specification before seeming the final finish. With a paint to sample finish of Porsche Amethyst, metallic silver with a matt finish, tan seats….. just check out the video and see for yourself. There’s more to follow, so like and subscribe if you’d like to see more. Who needs a restromod when you can buy a new Morgan.
As for the buying experience; for me it was a pure delight. A factory visit mid build, talking with the people actually crafting the bodywork and then being treated to this wonderful unveiling. I’m not sure if this is the norm, yet if you’re in the market for a new Morgan, treat yourself to a trip to Malvern and order there. With a little luck and a fair wind you’ll enjoy the same treats. A special thanks to Dan, without whom it wouldn’t have been the same.

    Loved your video and enthusiasm! It is a stunning car. I picked my brand new plus four up from Ledgerwood Morgan in 2022 and my brother filmed my wife and I seeing it for the very first time. I will always treasure that moment to my dying day! Thank you for sharing👍👍👍

    A Morgan car is truly a unique experience, I hope the car lives up to your expectations. People will smile at you when your driving the car where ever you go. I am privileged to have had 4, I still have a copy of the build photos of my late wife sat in the rolling chassis. My current Morgan is an AeroMax number 10/100, I’d be happy with any Morgan as I love being a member of the Morgan family 😘

    Did the same thing 30 years ago with my Plus 8 from the factory, a truly magic experience. Not quite as "plush" back then though 🙂 I hope you enjoy the car it looks fab. I think the test car outside is the one my brother drove a couple of weekends ago! I still have mine after 30 years, and it still brings us huge amounts of pleasure

    My wife and I wanted to do this when we lived in London in the 1970's. At the time the wait list for a new Morgan was about two years. We thought about putting our names down but knew we would be leaving the UK for the States before then, and realistically, we probably couldn't have afforded one then anyway. Fast forward several decades to 2017 and we finally bought a new car and picked it up from the factory. In our case though, it was a Volvo XC 90, built to our specs, and the pick up point was in Gothenburg, Sweden, so, granted our car isn't quite as exotic as yours, Julian, but getting a trip to Sweden from California was pretty special, and the handover, including a briefing beforehand with coffee and "cannelbuller" (cinnamon buns) in the waiting room, and a tiny single car showroom similar to yours was quite thrilling. Be well, and enjoy your Morgan! Greetings from California.

    This car is pure emotion. Applied art. There is not a single rational reason why anyone would own this car, yet that emotion is reason enough why I would love to have it. Beautiful from all angles, but more than its appearance is its inner aesthetic, the idea that travel must be an adventure in itself, a struggle between man, space and time. I hope this work of art will be cherished and cared for in your family for generations to come.

    Looks fantastic - the hardtop definitely finishes the car well. I bought the ex Plus Six press car in the summer. I drove mine out of the factory instead of the glass box which was also a great experience. The difference between Morgan and other brands is that 99.9% of the comments from people you meet are positive. Get some miles on it!

    @@bertiewooster3326 I've got some sympathy with the 'too soft' view but you could say the same about most modern cars vs the previous generation. The roof not leaking, aluminium chassis, decent ride over the bumps and loads of power sucked me into Morgan for the first time so you are right. I wouldn't have touched an old one even though I've had loads of classics.

    Your wife seems a little less impressed, I'm assuming for her its just a car! However there is something very special about a Morgan, and the colour choice is spectacular, and the cabin has that unique British luxury finish, that only a British car manufacturer like Morgan is capable of producing. Great to see someone genuinely excited getting his new car, i wish you many happy (hopefully trouble free!) miles. Whenever I take delivery of a new car, i am always nervous and apprehensive in case I find a fault, or it fails to live up to expectations, however clearly that was not a problem for you!

    She pretends she’s not excited, yet she’s a bit of a petrolhead in her own rights. When I say petrolhead, she likes driving, hence her choice of an Eletra for her electric car. This is my second ‘new’ Morgan. The first one was a limited edition LM62, so I had less of a say on the specification and less emotional investment in the car itself. When i saw issues on the initial pick up (just bits of glue and loose fitting hard top), I was immediately disappointed. Then with the coolant and brake issues I just couldn’t get past it and the car lost it’s appeal. Hence the change. It wasn’t a problem with driving a Morgan, just that car. The Plus Six has been something else though. I know there will be bits to refine on my new purchase. Yet that’s the thing with a hand built car, everything needs a little check and a tighten a little more often. In between times it’s just miles of smiles

    Despite what others say, I think you made the correct decision on the wheels (in silver would also have worked since you have a silver roof). They remind me of old school steel racing wheels; a perfect look for a Morgan. The other Plus Six wheel options which are wide open to show "show off" disc brake size and caliper colour might work on a boring looking hot hatch; on a Morgan for me such wheels are a big thumbs down. How about an update video? Have you had any problems?
