March 2010
Filed under: MORGAN Car News | MORGAN Headlines
The contemporary Morgan range holds true to the philosophy that Morgan have followed for 100 years " the creation of elegant fast sports cars.

Using the best quality materials, aluminium, ash and leather, every Morgan is created with passion, care and dedication by the craftsmen and women at the small factory in the picturesque Malvern Hills. Incorporating the most modern drivetrain technology, a Morgan will not only perform responsively, but also deliver low running costs and low carbon emissions too.

New for 2008, the 4/4 Sport takes purity to a new level. A back to basics car, the elegance is in the simplicity.

Available in a choice of 5 colours with saddle brown leather interior as standard, the £26,250 inc VAT 4/4 Sport has been designed to appeal to all ages.

With its lively new 1.6 litre 115 Bhp engine and weighing in at just 800Kg, the 4/4 Sport delivers fun in abundance with economy and low carbon emissions. The car is a perfect balance between tradition and modernity without the smallest compromise.

If its more performance you desire, the Morgan Plus 4s lightweight hand-crafted body still follows the flowing lines of the original, but power comes from a Ford 2.0 litre Duratec 145 Bhp four cylinder engine. This high power lightweight car delivers 0-62 in 7.3 seconds, and an amazing ability to put in fast averages thanks to its balance and power delivery.

The Morgan 4 seater has always been a well kept secret, despite being in production for over 70 years. Available as either a 2.0 litre Plus 4 or 204 Bhp 3.0 litre V6 Roadster, this model adds a new dimension to Morgan ownership, and with just two 4 seaters rolling out each week, exclusivity is guaranteed.

Two generous rear seats fold forward to give a large load area. Child seats can be fitted to ensure that the whole family whatever age can enjoy the delights of open air Morgan motoring.

The ultimate development of the traditional line is the smooth, powerful 3.0 V6 Roadster. Weighing only 938 Kg, the 204 Bhp Roadster sprints to 60 mph in around 5 seconds. New lateral axle location ensures smooth standing starts, whilst a new dashboard and instrumentation adds to the visual delight of the cockpit.

Morgan build cars for people who want a highly individual sports car thats great fun to drive. With the Morgan factory approaching the Centenary, the passion and dedication for the next 100 years is as strong as ever. The Classic Range has been shaped by a long heritage but the emphasis for 2008 is on environmental considerations and fuel efficiency as well as speed and exhilaration.
