Vehicle model
Morgan Gamme Morgan - véhicules particuliers
The core of Morgan's offering lies in its passenger cars: hand-built two-seat sports roadsters. The current range centers on the Plus Four (BMW four-cylinder) and the Plus Six (BMW six-cylinder), heirs to the historic 4/4, Plus 4, and Plus 8, as well as the Super 3, descendant of the iconic three-wheelers. More recently, special series such as the Midsummer (with Pininfarina) and the new Supersport on the CXV platform illustrate the move upmarket. The target audience is passionate: enthusiasts of old-school driving, pared-down mechanics, and exclusivity. These cars serve mainly as summer pleasure vehicles. In Quebec, they are hardly suited to winter; a seasonal use with storage during the cold season is preferred. As for tires and rims, these are sports-car fitments (15 to 19 inches depending on the model and era), to be checked precisely before any purchase.

Tires and wheels
Tire and wheel compatibility
Les Morgan modernes (Plus Four, Plus Six) montent généralement des roues de 18 à 19 pouces avec pneus de section sport, tandis que les modèles anciens et certaines séries chaussent du 15 à 16 pouces, parfois en roues à rayons. Le Super 3 utilise un montage atypique avec roues avant et arrière de tailles différentes. L'entraxe (bolt pattern) varie selon les époques et les modèles : toujours vérifier la fiche exacte du véhicule avant d'acheter pneus ou jantes. Au Québec, les Morgan étant des voitures-plaisir d'été, on roule rarement l'hiver; un jeu de pneus quatre saisons ou la simple immobilisation hivernale sont courants. Confirmez dimensions, déport et alésage selon le millésime.
