Morgan Roadster (2004 – 2020) Review
Morgan Roadster (2004 – 2020) At A Glance
The Morgan V6 Roadster is the most powerful of all the cars in the Classic Range. Powered by a 3.7 litre Ford engine, the Roadster is exhilarating to drive and represents the qualities of a pure Morgan sports car.
The overall weight of only 950kg for this aluminium car spells a power to weight ratio of around 300bhp per tonne. Power delivery is transmitted to the road through a limited slip differential with cone drive for good traction off the line.
The six cylinder engine and six speed manual transmission creates an engaging driving experience while an abundance of torque means the Roadster is well suited for long tours. The cockpit offers the perfect driver’s environment while utilising materials like natural leather and ash wood.

Morgan launches 110 Anniversary models
Each of the ‘110 Anniversary’ models benefit from unique badging, denoting their significance as 110th year editions, as well as an extensive list of specially selected performance and styling options included at no extra cost.
In addition to performance and styling options, a new range of standard colours has also been introduced. In addition to the ‘Sport Range’ of colours, there is now a ‘Classic Range’ and ‘Metallic Range’, which includes a selection of colours chosen by Morgan Design. These colours reflect some of the most popular Morgan colours throughout the company’s history, as well as some personal favourites hand-picked by Morgan’s design team.
A mix of performance and visual enhancements are also offered with each ‘110 Anniversary’ model. A front valance, rear exit sports exhaust and leather bonnet strap stand out as the more purposeful and race inspired options for Plus 4 and Roadster.
Interior trim and detail enhancements include a leather or wood rimmed Moto-Lita steering wheel, performance seats, a mohair hood pack and any choice of Yarwood leather, also available across Plus 4 and Roadster. In addition, customers will also have the option to have the ‘110 Anniversary’ logo embroidered on their headrest in matching or contrasting stich-work, further signifying the special nature of their new Morgan. All of these options are available at no extra cost.
The Roadster starts at £55,074.00 Inc. VAT in the UK, and similarly benefits from a total of 15 new options offered at no extra cost but worth £8,000.
As well as the Plus 4 and Roadster, the 3 Wheeler also receives a selection of interior and exterior ‘110 Anniversary’ options at no extra cost. For the interior, quilted leather stitching, centre split seats, storage pockets and a mohair tonneau cover are now all included.
