What a fab company! It's so great to see that they are still going very strong for well over one hundred years now! I'm the proud owner of a Plus +4 Centenary 1909-2009 two seater sports car and a rare Super Sports three wheeler trike of 1937 vintage with a barrelback (ally) body with a water cooled Matchless MX2 V-twin.... Bring back Charles Morgan!!!
Merveilleux film sur la fabrication des plus belles voitures du monde. On ressent toute la passion de ces artisans anglais pour la fabrication à la main des ces œuvres d'art automobile. J'ai hâte de visiter l'usine à Malvern.
OK now the gripes... It's about time you did something about the side screens "belling-out" after about 60mph! Why not copy the MG 'T' series of of cars with internal (instead of external) fittings, they are of a much better design. I went for a vintage three wheeler trike because of the body design. Will you be introducing the 'Barrelback' version of the old Super Sports for your new trike as an alternative (and addition) to the current 'Beetleback'?... The good news is below....
I had an idea. Might be insane, but anyways! - As kind of a "fun" video for youtube, it would be could if you could do someting like the Morgan SP1 again, but maybe with a Three Wheeler for example? Imagine a track oriented Three Wheeler, maybe a more powerful engine from a more powerful motorcycle. Front alloy custom wheels, a bit lower, driver seated in the middle, a real grippy rear tire, a freaking spoiler in the front! Would be cool to see what you guys can come up with, something different, something for the track! Like a morgan GT3 inspired three wheeler, or F1 inspired! Just my two cents, cheers
I love these classic looking British cars. These and the older Rolls-Royces. That British Racing Green one that he is driving at the end is exactly how I would have one.
Damn... Normally, I'm not a big sports car/luxury car/overtly special car guy... but I think I found one my new special dream car that's THAT special (and for good reason). PLEASE bring these to the USA at some point in time! :(
The factory tour is a must,it appears chaotic,with so many separate assembly areas,the whole site is on a slope,with part finished cars being pushed and rolled from one location to the next,but somehow a beautiful finished vehicle emerges. Great to see all the finished cars being road tested on the roads around Malvern, I would do the test driving for free. I have never owned one, but have always longed for one.,and part of the joy of ownership is knowing they are hand made by a dying breed of craftsmen.
Have been a big fan of Morgans for 54 years 🙂. I found this very interesting a very enjoyable. I was sad that the Morgan three wheeler (with Harley engine which I'm not a fan of) ended production. Now sadly Morgan have missed the target with its new three wheeler, it's a bitsa and lost its charisma. But I'm old and still in love the old traditional classic lines.
Gisteren een enthousiaste eigenaar aangesproken aan de Avia,die me deze link heeft aangeraden,zelden iemand zo enthousiast horen vertellen over de Morgan!!
Paint the inside of an aluminum panel for rust? I could see noise deadening or some sort of material that absorbed vibrations but this dude said rust.. what am I missing here?
Had the opportunity to visit the factory recently. If you get the chance to do so yourself... do it! You won't be disappointed. Fantastic! www.hayden-media.com
Mr Morgan: Build them (AERO 8) lower, wider, lighter, longer wheelbase. Everything other item/concern is unimportant and all will fall into its proper place. Place the present Aero on 3D cadd and stretch it 1 inch lower, stretch 3 inches wider, 2 inches longer wheelbase relocating existing rear wheels. Use more magnesium parts as it is 30% lighter than Aluminium to reduce your overall weight versus existing. Add a lot more gauges ( 5 to 7 white background). This is a British sports car, Do not follow Aston Martin, Jaguar, Lotus into producing digitised dashboards with graphs and LED's. Make it a modern car with a slight nostalgic interior. You can charge 50 thousand more for this over your present car and it will sell.
I'm surprised you have a factory video. When I was there in 1988 I went on the self tour with some friends. The only rule was "No Photos" yet others touring were taking photos.
What a fantastic video you guys are so lucky to work for Morgan I'd cut off my right leg for a job at your factory because like you guys I'm a perfectionist
Not feeling the whole wood body thing but these cars are absolutely stunning. Seen one in person in Chicago of all places and it truly leaves an impression.
"Morgan Motor Company: This Is How We Do It." I must have missed the bit about how they ousted Charles Morgan from the family business. Maybe next video?
The guy talking on the video said that they use aluminium sheet metal for paneling over the wood but then he says that they have to paint the backs of the panels to prevent them from rusting... I thought that aluminium doesn't rust???
@@gregtaylor6146 but do people care about the aluminum oxidizing? Because the oxidization stops once a thin layer is formed? It is almost like a free layer of protection lol
That 'thin' layer of oxidisation will over time get incrementally thicker and thicker till eventually that once shiny panel becomes nothing more than a powdered trail of Al2O3 coating the road leading to your garage.
Maybe if they'd listened to Sir JHJ and increased output in the early 90s they would have stayed family owned. They had to modernise in the end regardless.

Like a lot of people out there I really want a Morgan 3 wheeler but cant justify spending 45k for one .. I think it would be in Morgans financial intrest to set up a small manufacturing plant in the states and produce a 3 wheeler that are competatvly priced when compared to the canam-spyder at around 20k . Morgan needs to seriously consider this
oddly enough the current morgan 3-wheeler was actually designed in the states by a small kit car company in seattle called liberty motors. it was called the ace cyclecar, morgan became interested in the design and bought all of the rights to the ace cyclecar design from liberty, and liberty became an importer and dealer for morgan.
How is it that Morgan can make a HAND BUILT, made to order, specialty car. With not a plastic panel in sight. And it's relatively affordable to the average Joe... Yet big manufacturers that have assembly lines and mass produced plasticy bits can't. That's a damn shame...
It's so good to see that a car company like this still exists. Keep up the great work Morgan.
CammieGee just like a retro motorcycle company like the ural motorcycles and Royal Enfield!
Damn, car making as a craft! Look at the care and attention that is put into each one! I want one!!
I love how Morgan avoids the craziness of high tech and stays true to their heritage. They are a breath of fresh air in the automotive industry.
"Avoids the craziness of high tech"? There are 4 computers in a Morgan!
This is only part of the reason why I have been an owner since 1969
Still running on half self?
The other reason is you are a closet homosexual ?

Just lovely to watch. Well done all.

ColininOz I want one ! I have wanted one since the 1940's when I first saw one in England as a boy. But alas..... champagne taste - beer budget.
Wow hold old are you, if you first saw this car in 1940 now at least 90 y.o?

Morgan has and allways be be my favorite car company, reguardless if i live in the states.
Did he say the panels were painted underneath to prevent rust? That's great music.
Underrated car company
This shows why Morgans have a "soul" that most new cars do not. Hell, even the Maserati plant's partially automated now!
You can't say that they aren't environment friendly.
My dream car.

Amazing works! I'm very impressed. Thanks for sharing this video :)
I've been there on a school trip but there are restricted areas
I have always liked Morgans but this video really makes me want to buy one.
I love how they 're-manufacture' owners cars, they are dismantled and inserted back into the 'production line!
I made it by myself thanks to woodprix plans. I think it's the best way to learn how to build.
Chavira Wiser hey Chaviar, are the plans available to build a Morgan? I would love to build one myself?
buyer handover would have been nice to see.
Wish I had one, better yet afford one.
красотища
British craftsmanship at its best.
The assembly line has been around since 1913...Morgan...no thanks.

lovely

Superb quality. Pride in workmanship. Excellence with wheels.
MY DREAM is to own one of these exquisitely handcrafted beauties someday!
There's just no limit to the things I would do for one of these ... it's the most beautiful car I've ever seen...
Go to Woodprix webpage if you'd like to know how to build it. Good solutions for everyone I think
Amazing craftmanship! 😍👏🏻 I would love the 3 Wheeler 🤤 #OneDay 💫
the best video about morgan is IL TRANQUILLO E LA MORGAN
Woh ,they are using wood also a material for this car ,wood plays a major role in weight reduction,really nice !
I am hungry for wooden aluminum coated frames now be perfect replacement for my cars Swiss cheese frame
Oh there's a second stage to the paint. That must be the mother and toddler finger painting activity session lol
May I have my Morgan in unpainted aluminum please? Thank you so much.
I love old cars, and I want to work with you for free 😍😍🙏
It's like stepping inside a time capsule and going back to a good place
Beautiful all I have to say...I hope one day i could buy one of your masterpiece

My dream car 😊
Morgan only possible because of the Malvern Hills
Top notch.
Morgan makes art. pure love .craft of the build
this is a time travel into the 30s of the previous century
V12 engine?
Nice..
Fabulous.
Lovely 😊
Incredible workmanship.
That guy at 7:04 must really hate his job...
Go to woodprix if you'd like to build it yourself.
re the king : whats your problem with the logo?
If I go to UK for some years,I would buy a Morgan!
i will have a morgan someday. Cant afford it now
Carriagemakers, for real! Awesome!
OK. Now put an electric drivetrain in one
fantastic work - keep it up!!
How do they move cars between shops in the rain without getting the wiring and exposed wood wet? Does it rain in England?
it never rains in England
:0 wood ? car made by wood
Wait, so the frame rails themselves are metal? That is not what I thought! I thought the whole frame of the car was wood. Proven wrong I guess.
"Body frame" (as its called) is ash wood. The chassis is galv. steel
feel good company
Amazing I want one
Wonderful!
Wonderful!!!
The guy talking on the video said that they use aluminium sheet metal for paneling over the wood but then he says that they have to paint the backs of the panels to prevent them from rusting... I thought that aluminium doesn't rust???
It doesn't, but it will - without protection - oxidise, which is what I think this chap was alluding to.

same case a motor bike. what's your point? UK has real freedom where you take responsibility for yourself if want a bike or a Morgan, go ahead.

Not seen their alternate fuel concepts then, right on the edge of new terchnology
We know Wood rots so why keep going down that road are you living in the past?
Interesting viewpoint. Our Morgan was built during the summer of 1962 and still wears its original paint... and no rotten or damaged wood.
God. Look how shoddy the whole outfit is lol
