Modern Traditional Morgans: 19972020

Including background on the development of Morgan sports cars, an inside view of the range of traditional steel-chassis Morgan sports cars. Morgan sports cars are some of the most recognisable traditional sports cars. The Morgan 4/4, first produced in 1936, is the longest-running production vehicle in the world. However, behind the familiar waterfall cowl, there are a host of sometimes confusing differences in the Morgan models that make choosing a Morgan more complex than it may seem. In this book, Morgan expert David Wellings examines the traditional ladder-chassis ‘long-door’ Morgans that were produced between 1997 and 2020. The book covers all the models of that period, including the 4/4, Plus 4, Plus 8 and the Roadster. As is demonstrated, the differences between the cars extend beyond the engine types and sizes to include subtle changes to screen and side-screen shapes as well as hood and dashboard variations. Including background on the development of Morgan sports cars and reflections and insights on the ownership experience, David Wellings offers a concise guide to the multiple variations and invisible intricacies which are an intrinsic part of the steel-chassis Morgans.
