If I won the lottery, and was in the mood, I would consider an SP2 Supersport, but my demands would be Turrino aluminium wires, with the boot lid cut out for a spare, no hard top because it ruins the shape, and also an aluminium splitter to replace the snow plough. Finished in Porsche Signal Orange from the 70's. Silver wheels. Black interior with orange stitching.

It will never happen.

I bet the Italians/MMC are absolutely overjoyed with the result.....!!!
I wonder by how much the result has increased the value and saleability of MMC..................??????πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈπŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈΒ£Β£Β£Β£Β£Β£Β£

Would the Supersport have been so high in the results if it had been pi$$ing it down for the whole of the test......???πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ
I can't imagine that the journalists would have been so complimentary had the rain been coming in round the sidescreens.....πŸ˜†

To achieve such a good result against such impressive opposition when the MMC R & D/development budget was probably that of the Lambo engineers tea float is outrageous....!!

The 2026 facelift is going to be amazing.............!!!!!!!!!!🀞🏼🀞🏼

I hope it broadens the appeal of Morgans to a much wider audience, because it needs to sell units to secure it's future especially it's financial viability. Be interesting to see what the 2025 financial results look like, with the US market opening up to them with the Plus Four. If production switches from the traditional dependance on the UK, I wonder how that will filter thru in future developments, to appeal to different market demands.

Surely they have to make more use of the CXV chassis, and not just with the six pot. I was told the US homologation only applies to the CX chassis, and if that is so the CXV won't be seen soon in the US. But I'd buy a CXV P4, even give up some of the extra space in my P6 in exchange for better fitting doors!

I think homologation of CXV chassis in the US is a question of when, not if. Probably once demand around the rest of the world stabilises.

I drove the Supersport in heavy rain. No water leaks anywhere. The seal of the side screens against the rubber on the hardtop is excellent. As is noise and wind suppression.

Good to hear. I hope the seal is good with the soft top too!

Plus 4 sales look healthy in U.S. for 2025. Wondered if they were available in Canada? - but not legal by the looks of it. Having said that, got a cousin in Edmonton and it’s -19 deg c at the moment.

Total Deliveries: Since its return in early 2025, Morgan has delivered more than 200 Plus Fours to U.S. customers as of November 2025.
Annual Sales Limit: Under the federal "replica car" rule (FAST Act), Morgan is legally restricted to selling a maximum of 325 cars per year in the U.S. to bypass certain federal safety regulations.
2025 Production Growth: The company projected adding roughly 200 cars to its total annual production specifically to meet U.S. demand for the 2025 model year.
Dealership Network: The vehicle is currently sold through a network of 12 authorized dealerships across the United States.

OK at the risk of being "controversial" (aka getting lynched), if I were the MMC board I would set-up a manufactirng facility in say Detroit (other U.S. locations are available), ship over say 50 key assembly staff from Pickersleigh Road, and service the U.S. market that way
