I run a traditional manual 2011 2 litre Morgan Sport in mid-Wales near Presteigne. Williams Morgan kindly loaned me an automatic 2025 Plus Four for a hour or so while my car had an annual service and check-over.
My memories of a manual 2020 CX remain impressive but the 2025 model albeit an auto is on an entirely different level for ease of driving, build quality and refinement. Yes, some of the traditional character has gone. For example, I happen to like a fly-off hand brake and am a tad surprised that the factory doesn't offer their customers a choice of bespoke "and/or" options?
