- Former Top Gear Stig Ben Collins gets behind the wheel of the latest 2021 Morgan Plus Four for a road review. The latest Morgan Plus 4 is powered by the throaty turbocharged BMW 2.0 Engine, whose four thumping cylinders produce 255 bhp and 295 IB ft of torque. Couple that with the all new lightweight chassis and the Plus Four will accelerate from 0-62mph in just over 5 seconds!
This latest Morgan is available in both manual and automatic variants, in this Plus Four review, we take a look at the manual finished in stunning Miami Blue - the perfect colour for chasing clouds around the Cheddar Valley. It also features a luxuriant leather interior and a workable (yes workable without the need for a PHD or a team of engineers) convertible roof.

It's so refreshing to view and listen to a car review by a professional driver with informed comments rather than an amateur presenter hoping to be the next Clarkson.
Your comment gave me a reason to watch this and you’re not wrong. Spot on, thanks!
From the Silent Stig to the Articulate Ben Collins. Great review. I mean it. A very well-presented, beautifully expressed review of an old British marque.Terrific.
Charming car. Wish I had room for another parking spot!
Video production is "par excellance"!
Thank you glad you enjoyed it! Your French is pretty damn good too! 👍🏻
Thank you - the boys did it proud
Great video, thoroughly enjoyed!
Good to see another video Ben, look forward to more!
Thank you - working on them! Enjoy the Bimmers :)
Fab. I'm late to this, but great to hear from someone whose judgement I'd actually trust. Subbed.
Another great video. Really high quality.
Love the sun rays effect on the lens
👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you glad you enjoyed it !
being 6' 9" tall, that's one of the many automotive experiences I will never get to have- the feeling of driving a lithe roadster on a twisty road. I guess I'll just live it vicariously.
Rock n Roll! 🤙🏻 lovely little car!
Thank you for flipping me the keys (for those reading, this film only came about because Christian (Motorflix) appeared at my house in this car and it was too tempting not to go for a spin)
what a great review of my favourite car brand,excellent thank you
Best review yet.
Looks nice, decent colour as well.
Nice to hear that you were happy with the manual gear shift. A salesman at our local Morgan dealer said to me - as I mentioned that a manual should also be available in the PlusSix (which it is not), that the gear ratio in the manual was too large/ wide so that you can actually only use the first four gears - apart from a German Autobahn. Would you confirm this statement of his?
Not had the opportunity yet to test drive the PlusFour with a manual ….
Thank you for a great video.
The most beautiful car I know!
I fell instantly in love with Plus 4 when I saw it first time on a cover of a British magazine more than 40 years ago… The one with the wooden frame and leather strap over the hood (bonnet)…. They were still produced in small number (by order in UK)…. Six figures back than (and in the former USSR) seemed like a dream….. Now…. In California… this would be a perfect weekend drive…. I still love the old ones with chrome and lots of things done by hand the old fashioned way…. Someday…. I will own one in red…. Or distant second ….silver.
Owned a Moggy in the 70’s and since had lots of great cars. I currently drive a Porsche, but the more I remember of my Moggy time and watch vids like this……. It’s going to be a difficult choice!
I want one! 👍
Awesome driving roads in and around Bristol!
Beautiful city and lovely with the roof down
@@BenCollinsDrives Three years ago I went to Alfaholics open day and did a video on the event, I took a leaf out of Love Cars book and finished it off with a drive up Cheddar Gorge; this is still my most watched video on CZcams!
Just awesome. Love, health, and happiness from India.

It's a lovely thing, but, and I hate myself for typing this something was lost when they put BMW engines inside. If only Morgan had had the resources to to be able to remake the K Series and bolt on a supercharger, or even go down the Honda VTEC route, what with the tenuous British connection. But hey ho, one can still dream.
Burrington Combe!

You have a slight look of Douglas Bader about you.
jackie collins father?
Highest ratio of convertibles in the world because UK weather is actually far better than people want to admit maybe? Many UK vids I watch and the weather is lovely and a convertible is great when it's not too cold and not blistering hot so I can understand there being a lot of them. As a foreigner listening to the English moan about the weather is sorta funny. They throw Goldilocks weather quips in mid sentence without realising they're doing it. Weather moaning is a habit or something learnt from birth maybe?
I think it's the unpredictable nature of Island weather that stirs conversation - it habitually rains on your parade / BBQ / wedding / crops / fresh coat of paint etc - from birth to grave we hear about this lottery of anguish and it's pretty amusing, never more so than when it snows and the state of unpreparedness crashes down on the Brits so badly you'd think the UK was in the Caribbean
