Morgan Motor Company has unveiled a commemorative 4/4 to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the introduction of the firm's first four wheel, four cylinder vehicle. Until 1937, Morgans were three-wheeled affairs powered by two cylinder air cooled engines.

From the official Morgan press release:
"Today Morgan Motor Company announced the specification for the latest Morgan Four Four offering. Created to honour the 75th anniversary of the iconic Morgan 4/4,
the Anniversary edition will be produced as a limited run special.
Morgan Motor Company state that the 75th Anniversary combines “the low
size and weight benefits of the entry level 4/4 with the power train
from the larger more powerful Morgan Plus 4. A carefully selected set of
standard options, with additional unique body graphics, completes
arguably the best standard combination of body, engine and aesthetic in
the Morgan Classic range.”
This new Morgan 4/4 Sports car is being offered in 3 colours: Sport
Black, Sport Red and Old English White. All come with black perforated
leather interior, carpets, hood and wheels. The dashboard is polished
Tawny ash and a Mota Lita wheel
is standard. The combination of the Ford sourced 2.0 engine from the
Classic Plus 4 and the narrow wings of the standard 4/4 should make for a
very spirited drive.
The car is available for £38,750 (Approx US$60,000) + on the road
charges from Morgan Motor Company and their associated dealers".
At present it is unclear whether it will be offered in the US.
