Finished in anodised grey aluminium, Morgan’s own gear lever costs £1,746, and looks far more befitting of a British sports car. </p><p>Orders for the Supersport 400 can be placed with Morgan now, with prices starting at £135,558 before you delve into the array of customisation options. </p><p>Production of the flagship Morgan will commence in May 2026, with the first deliveries to follow later this year.</p><p>• <em>John Redfern writes for Motoring Research</em></p> </div>
