I find the 2011 Sport the best Morgan, I have had the pleasure to drive (Sigma engine + Mazda box + spare wheel) looks great, more than enough acceleration, easy to maintain.
I'd tend to agree, it was the 4/4 Sport that I always had in mind when modifying my car. High power-to-weight ratio, light, agile, revvy, ideal for larking about on B Roads. The change in exhaust note as the needle passes 4k rpm, the valve timing changes, the variable intake length shortens and you get that lovely howl is really quite addictive.
On the other hand, I can see that others have really quite different views on what driving a Morgan should be like: relaxed cruising around country roads, mile-munching tours from one end of the continent to the other, furtling around in the garage with oily hands fettling bits and pieces, there are innumerable ways to enjoy a Morgan and ultimately it all comes down to the use cases envisaged by the owner.
Hence the advice to test drive a few. To a Morgan newbie, the trads all do tend to look alike (I've been around them for a quarter of a century and I'm still not quite sure what I'm looking at half the time) but as a driving experience there's a world of difference between the models - and even between some examples of the same model.
