Are you joking with that gear selector, it looks horrible in that car

[SergeantMoetz]

BMW is handing out the B58 engine like they're on a charity campaign.

[bryncb]

Exterior: wow
Interior: oof, especially the gear shifter

[deanchur]

Needs a manual with a wood gear shifter.

[jacktyler]

Absolutely no idea why it doesn’t have a manual box. Ruined.

[aljowen]

Out of all the cars using that engine, I feel the Morgan is the one that should have been a manual.

The Z4 and Supra are modern GT/Sports cars, so I can understand the exclusively automatic gearbox. But isn't the appeal of a Morgan that it is intended to feel more raw and involving?

[lawiez]

Which knobbead thought keeping the knob was a good idea? I literally threw up in my mouth.

[stephanvelines]

Some say under the Toyota Supra you’ll find a wooden chassis...

[Lukemplant]

After seeing that gear selector I’m genuinely struggling to watch the rest of the video. Quite upsetting overall.

[decdeclanlan]

I wish brands just stopped using dry weights. Maybe all the performance measures should be conducted in that configuration too! Would get you a nice 0-60 of however steep the hill is.

The cost of getting a Morgan legally saleable in Australia means that it's a very rare site on our roads, but I think it looks great and I can't see anything wrong with the interior. It does look a bit like the interior's we are used to seeing in high end hot rods but I see that as a positive thing. I suspect that after a couple of months of ownership other cars would seem rather lacking in flair. It probably should be a manual but perhaps it was to big a job to separate the auto from the computer. No car made in low numbers is cheap so its not too expensive. I can't have one but I'm glad it exists.

[vilas]

Love it. Perfect mix of modern and classic. So much more character than 99.9% of the mundane boring sports cars out there

[carlosjaros]

Surely a low mileage V8 is the way to go...

[rockzsr]

I remember the time when Charles Morgan himself is one of the host at this channel. Will he ever featured again here?

[LPMurcielago]

That interior is bloody awful!! the Horrendous BMW gear shifter has been mentioned too many times in the comments... but what about that Sport + button?? I would be revoke my order faster than this thing may accelerate. I'd take the + 4 over this purely for that reason.

[GJM-]

Automatic gearbox in a Morgan? No, thanks.

[leobuckey]

Those headlights sum the car up for me, needlessly new. I love the manual v8 Morgans that had a dirty old soul.

[rare]

Absolutely wonderful looking car I love it! This is pure lottery win for me. For all those talking about the gear lever, the cost to develop a new one must be much much bigger than anyone imagines. The Toyota also uses the same. So there’s clearly a very good reason why it wasn’t so simple to change. A company like Morgan can’t develop a manual box either if one doesn’t exist off the shelf. They just don’t have the resources. Great car, wish Morgan all the best for the future 🙏

[JamesYoung]

Morgan should have gone to Lotus and put one of their supercharged Toyota engines in with their lovely manual gearshifts because that engine sounds better and better the harder you push it.

[willywillywillywillywilly]

That 4:3 ratio is perfect. Well done lol
