I think there is little difference as to real quality issues experienced between manufacturers, especially when you take issues like the infrequency in the use of the vehicle like a Morgan. Very often winter long hibernation in many cases, such lengthy periods of inactivity do not help maintaining components in optimum operating environments. The cars are brought out when the sun shines often pushed into service on lengthy holiday trips, and then surprise surprise something not working properly when woken up from a deep slumber.
Many of the Morgans I've inspected when searching for a car had patchy service history, often no annual service etc. Then people wonder why components fail when pressed into a period of regular use following long periods of inactivity. Very few cars would be reliable if subjected to the Morgan type of limited mileage and occasional use, many often experience.
