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 😘
17 minutes. Now, I can finally hinge up my jaw and close my mouth. I had a love relationship with a ’59 MGA Coupé in the early 70’s. How I miss that car. If I evvver win the lottery it will be used for A Morgan. Thanks for the flick… and always stay forever young 🙏🙏🙏😁😁😁
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👍👍👍
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.
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
You lucky barstard! I'm sure you've worked your backside of for this. Thank you for this journey and may I say great taste. Greetings from Oz and I'm GREEN with envy hehehe love her!
Real celebration of the pickup, I really like it. Fantastic car, congratulations! I wish you a lot of highly enjoyable miles and a lot of fun. Regards from Switzerland (with very beautiful Alpine passes).
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.
That sounds pretty cool as a car collection goes. It doesn’t matter what the car is, it’s all about the emotion. The relationship with a car (or bike) is what it’s all about.
Congratulations on your new Morgan. The interior/exterior colour combination is exquisite. What a thing to look forward to stepping into and driving. I hope you have many happy miles with it.
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.
Sheer elegance and beauty. When I worked for Midland Red I drove past the Morgan factory everyday and saw numerous Morgans all over Malvern daily . Your spec for the motor is up there with the very best I have ever seen ❤
Wow what an amazing colour. Very special. We had a factory visit 25 years ago and it was terrific, we could go anywhere and chat to anyone, other than the prototype/ Le Mans area.
We went up to the Morgan factory a few weeks ago in our new Plus 6 (bit topsy turvy I know, should have done this before we bought it). Ours looks very similar to the Plus 6 demonstrator that was sitting outside the handover bay (has a few more extras). Love ours and I hope you enjoy yours.
Beautiful car and specification. I was at the factory this week with my Aero 8 having a hard top fitted. One of my favourite places to visit. The people are just as special as the cars.
I'm not exactly a Morgan aficionado, but I do think it is wonderful that we in the UK still have a hand-built motor company. She looks great - I love her swooping lines and that body colour is exquisite! I hope you enjoy her for many years.😊
I agree about Morgan being uk based. Parts may come from around the world, yet the craft of creating these cars is based upon years of experience. It’s a joy to watch, and the car is a joy to drive.
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
@@julian_theviews Clearly I was wrong about your wife! The Electra is a fantastic looking car, and along with the new four door GT - the Emeya, which should be on sale in next year, represent a great move by Lotus! I would have liked an Emeya myself, but at a projected price in excess of 100k was outside what I could spend. You should get your wife to post a similar video when she takes delivery of her Electra - it will probably be a first for TH-cam! Pleased to hear you are enjoying your Morgan, and I await the next videos...
Fantastic specs. I think the Porsche is technically a better car but will age pretty soon. A Morgan is a new classic car and will never age. I think you made the right choice opting for a Morgan. Congrats and make lots of happy memories with it.
@@julian_theviews yes well there is always a market for a Porsche 911. Just sell it. Recoup some money, invest it and let the money grow. Now it’s only costing money.
Beautiful car, a touch edgy and a step away from the purist's BRG but stunning. It will certainly stand out at the next Morgan cars and coffee. You're a lucky man.
Mate!! Imported a 4/4 Competition to Aus in 1965, later visited the Morgan factory in 1976 and returned to Aus with a beautiful Plus 4. Drove the 4/4 from Perth to Sydney and now an Octogenarian Series 3 V12 E Type driver.My series1 E Type was better than the Series 3 but the Morgan was the best of the lot.Half your luck.
Almost bought a Series 1 etype. After driving it I decided my 1970 Austin Healy Sprite was better 😆. This new Morgan is something else. The only thing classic now is the look. What classic do you have now? Still the v12?
@@julian_theviews Still driving the beautiful Lavender Blue V12 with a six speed manual racing gearbox ex Richmond USA. Imported to Aus in 72 and all original/ resprayed/eng rebuilt. All the ladies love the colour but a Gun metal Grey Series 1 was my favourite.
Thanks. Keep an eye out for some other colours on Morgan’s Social Media. I’ve had a sneak preview of something coming through that I was lusting after.
@@julian_theviews Ooooh that sounds nice! Since allocations aren't happening here in the US until probably the new year, I've been playing around with the configurator. A nice purple would be really cool. 💜😎
I wondered if something similar could be achieved with a blood red opposed to the purple? Also look at the materials for the super 3… you’d be surprised what you can spec that doesn’t appear on the configurator. If they do it on one car, they can normally find a way to do it on another.
Wow! That is beyond gorgeous! You’ll really enjoy owning that! Haven’t been to the Morgan factory since they built the new visitor centre - it looks amazing.
Congratulations. Happy for you. Enjoy! So much improved mechanically over the years. But the look, oh the classic look is sensational. It’s a Morgan. I owned and drove Porches for 20 years. Should have bought Morgan’s. My loss. 😱
WOW what an amazing spec so pleased you had a dry day to collect . Amazing craftsmanship quality over quantity happy motoring . Still waiting to win the premium bonds I can dream
Great report Julian thank you🤩. It' s one of my dream come true. Malvern Hills looks so cute The exterior paint color is just sublime. Your Plus Six is gorgeous. Can' t wait to see your test drive report and have your thoughts about the differences between your ex Plus Four and your new Plus Six.
Man… i can feel your happiness and Joy! The car is amazing, and the color is simply stunning. Can i ask you the drive feeling? I’Ve a 911 and i’m thinking of it.
I have a 992 4s. The refinement and accomplished nature of the Porsche is head and shoulders shoulders above a Morgan. It’s not a Morgan though. There is something very special about a Morgan….and the current engine and gearbox makes it insanely fast.
No, it’s a good design. Additional traction through the drive wheels, narrower at the front for accurate turn in. A can of spray replaces the spare. The same in my Porsche and my Austin Healy Sprite. Why carry additional weight if you don’t have to.
You will not believe this. I was on a factory tour there the other week and have pictures of your car. I knew it had to be yours as it matched the spec you showed us. I have been waiting to see this video to check it was yours. Beautiful car. I managed to miss my friends car that was being finished behind yours at the time! Enjoy.
Lovely video and Morgans are fabulous, just a small point if I may...Mal-vern as you say..is pronounced Moll-vern..like malt loaf..mollvern..Malvern... great footage and enjoy your new toy!! Thanks for the footage.
WOW! Your excitement was so great that I am having a hard time not smiling during the video. I do wish that you would have used that brilliant English humor when after the cover came off and you said "FK me" if you turned to Dan and then said "it's the wrong color!" then laughed. Congratulations and thanks for your positive energy.
Yep, the Plus Six replaced the 2022 LM62 Plus Four. As for Porsche, I firmly believe the Morgan could and should be considered a 718 rival. Although 911 is a different proposition altogether, which is why I have one of those too. Tell me more, 6Porsches, 20years of Morgan, there is more to that story I’m sure.
I owned 6 Porches in total, 3 911s I also enjoyed my 928 😀 I’m sure we will meet up sometime If you haven’t started at The Cottage in the Woods, you should give it ago. I love staying there, walking the hills & visiting the Factor. I’m booked in for May, for the Malvern Spring Fair.
It's lovely, but no spare (OK, I read below why) and are those steel wheels? Much prefer the trad Morgans for all their faults and harder work to drive (and I drive one).
I could have had a spare on a rack. They are alloys rather than steels. I completely understand about trad Morgans. I have an Austin Healy Sprite, which has a personality I can only assume old Morgans have. Although for me, this purchase was for a modern car with the trade off between performance and old school character.
@@julian_theviews Sorry, I meant alloys! Yes, I've driven a CX platform Plus Four and it is a nice easier drive. Glad you have the Sprite to experience the old school feel of the road.
Your excitement was brilliant mate like a kid in a sweet shop! 😎
Still is every time I open the garage door
That is absolutely gorgeous 😍
Lovely to see you collecting it.
Wishing you very happy motoring.
Quite an experience.

That is one helluva nice car and the colour is glorious. My colour right now is jealous green.
🤣
Amazing, you stood in front of my white one, that is now on it's way to N of Scotland 8:30 in 🙂
I know all about it. Dan and I like a chat! Why do a 500mile slog to get it back when the driving routes are your doorstep when you get home. Enjoy 😊
Was surprised to see a sales board in front of it ??@@julian_theviews

0% interest at the moment. Tell Dan at Malvern that I sent you
Just come across this video. I've seen your car at the factory once or twice. It's such a gorgeous colour combination.
More videos to come. Thanks for watching.
Love the colour. Enjoy the car.
Will do 👍🏻

Just perfect in and out ,love it .

You’re so right, I can make rude noises and everyone smiles; if I do that in the Porsche I get frowns
What do the .1% say about it ? Ive had 4 mogs but no more their too soft now for a different type of driver / owner....

Superb colour combo. Interior looks ultra classy and expensive. Sumptuous.

A friend, Richard Parker from Worcester (sadly no longer with us) would have loved this video. He restored Morgan's in his spare time. Enjoy!
The next time I’m out I’ll spare a thought for Richard. Thanks for the comment
Morgan’s = possessive singular form
Morgans = plural
So why have you used the possessive singular form?
Perhaps he restored Morgan’s Morgan or Morgan’s Morgans. It could have been an incorrect autocorrect.
Mission accomplished. Out yesterday and stopped at Brands Hatch Morgan. Thought of Richard and wondered if his workshop was as… workshopy.
Congrats! Use it well.
I wish i had the ability to have the angst of choosing a morgan or a porsche.

You will not believe this. I was on a factory tour there the other week and have pictures of your car. I knew it had to be yours as it matched the spec you showed us. I have been waiting to see this video to check it was yours. Beautiful car. I managed to miss my friends car that was being finished behind yours at the time! Enjoy.
That’s so cool. I avoided seeing the painted body in my visit, so any pics you could send would be great
@@julian_theviews yes happy to. How shall I sent them, I have three of them.
@rcBitz julian@theviewschool.org 👍🏻👌🏻
Nice motor. Nice to see how excited you are. 😄 It's like Christmas!! Go slow down our lane eh!
Soooo excited.
Yes indeedie, lanes are busy places, always aware and sight lines established before giving it some.
Beautiful car congratulations preferred over the Porsche ,its timeless will turn more heads
There’s something quite special about it
Lovely video and Morgans are fabulous, just a small point if I may...Mal-vern as you say..is pronounced Moll-vern..like malt loaf..mollvern..Malvern... great footage and enjoy your new toy!! Thanks for the footage.
If only I could turn back time and amend my pronunciation. Thanks for your comments, really appreciated.
Enjoy while you can the powers that be want it dead.
Every moment 👍🏻
Favourite beverage Guinness? Lovely car.
A mix of Guinness and Vimto
Mamma mia! My plus four will start it's build early 2025 to come to the USA!
It’s great news they’re finally on their way to the US. Shame about the increasing import taxes you may have to cover 😔
Wow!
Weeee
Wunderschön
Isn’t it.
WOW! Your excitement was so great that I am having a hard time not smiling during the video. I do wish that you would have used that brilliant English humor when after the cover came off and you said "FK me" if you turned to Dan and then said "it's the wrong color!" then laughed. Congratulations and thanks for your positive energy.
I’d have loved to have, unfortunately a spontaneous reaction got in the way 🙄 🤣
Lovely car. Hope you got paint protection and ceramic on paint 👍
Not at the mo, although it will be going on soon
Hi Julian, I hope it won’t be too long before you discover The Cottage in the Woods.
Less time now 👍🏻
Are you still the owner of the Plus 6?
I am a Morgan owner for 20 years, after owning 6 Porsche cars.
Yep, the Plus Six replaced the 2022 LM62 Plus Four. As for Porsche, I firmly believe the Morgan could and should be considered a 718 rival. Although 911 is a different proposition altogether, which is why I have one of those too.
Tell me more, 6Porsches, 20years of Morgan, there is more to that story I’m sure.
I owned 6 Porches in total, 3 911s I also enjoyed my 928 😀
I’m sure we will meet up sometime
If you haven’t started at The Cottage in the Woods, you should give it ago. I love staying there, walking the hills & visiting the Factor. I’m booked in for May, for the Malvern Spring Fair.
I have a service due, so already looking to book. Thanks for the tip.
I’m considering a 944, nostalgic purposes as my Dad had one…. and they’re cheep
A dream !
Yep, and I’m in it….. so lucky
Lucky SOB 😍
I think that everyday 👍🏻
It's lovely, but no spare (OK, I read below why) and are those steel wheels? Much prefer the trad Morgans for all their faults and harder work to drive (and I drive one).
I could have had a spare on a rack. They are alloys rather than steels.
I completely understand about trad Morgans. I have an Austin Healy Sprite, which has a personality I can only assume old Morgans have. Although for me, this purchase was for a modern car with the trade off between performance and old school character.
@@julian_theviews Sorry, I meant alloys! Yes, I've driven a CX platform Plus Four and it is a nice easier drive. Glad you have the Sprite to experience the old school feel of the road.
