I doubt if anyone considering a new Morgan would buy one if it drove like a 60/70/80’s trad. Morgan must move with the times and their profits probably won’t pay for meeting current and forthcoming legislation never mind developing new models hence their decision.
The new Plus 6 BMW engine is a brand new design not previously used in any BMW prior to 2019. It is only made in Automatic form hence no manual option. I doubt if BMW will ever do a manual.
Personally I love my auto with paddles ...........
