A very classy Morgan Roadster, seen the British Motorsport Festival in Beijing. The Roadster is painted in a retro beige, with shiny chrome everywhere, and it has the famous leather belt over the bonnet.

Morgan’s interiors have vastly improved over the years, as this Roadster’s insides show. The finish is great, and the brown leather and brown wood look brilliant. Steering wheel with a very tin rim, 3 shiny spokes, and without an airbag.

The Morgan Roadster is powered by Ford-sourced 3.7 liter V6 engine, good for 284 hp and 352 Nm, mated to a 6-speed manual ‘box. Top speed is 225km/h and 0-100 is gone in 5.5 seconds.

Price in China starts at 1.5 million yuan and ends at 1.6.

Luggage rack over the spare wheel, and I love how they did the third brake lights, popping out above the spare wheel.

Fuel door on the right site of the luggage rack. Fog light and reverse lights almost hidden under the bumper, being just big enough.

They also had this black Morgan 4-4 on the booth, a four-seater with a very long convertible roof. It is powered by a tiny 1.6 liter four, good for just 112 horses and 131 Nm. The engine is mated to a five-speed manual. Top speed is 185 km/h and o-100 takes 8 seconds. Price is a friendly 950.000 yuan.

Completely different rear design than the Roadster, and it is narrower too. Nevertheless, it is likely the most stylish four-seater sportscar on the market today.
