Delighted to see many of you appreciating the car and others coming around to it. I love it. Curious though perhaps unsurprised about the negativity from some quarters. Have had a read through the totality of the comment thread here and on some of the fb groups and thought a bit about some of the objections and negativity... I thought I might offer a counter in the nature of some perspective to these criticisms?
Some people don’t know a good thing when it’s staring them in the face.
It’s 2025.
Morgan has just launched a brand new 1170kg sports car with 335hp hand built to exacting artisanal standards here in the UK by expert craftsmen.
It's inarguably and evidently a Morgan, louvers or not.
It doesn't have windows that go up and down with a button (it's more traditional than the Aero).
Morgan say explicitly they think it will go toe to toe in comparison drives with Porsche and Aston.
They will build 200 a year.
Outside of a club meet or lucky chance encounter how many are you likely to see here on UK roads vs Astons or 911s?
You can go and buy one and have one of the rarest modern production cars on the market.
There are no nagging driving aids.
It is the safest car they've ever made.
You can have it literally in any configuration you can imagine.
You can spec every single option and it will cost 30k less than a base Vantage.
In base spec it costs the same as a base spec 911.
You can watch it be made.
You can talk to the people making it.
It’s 2025.
Morgan have done something extraordinary here. If you love cars, Morgan, or driving, and the very fact the Supersport exists doesn’t make you grin from ear to ear, I think you need a reality check.
