The Morgan Motor Company is among the oldest independent automobile companies in existence with their turn- of-the-century factory in Malvern Link, Worcestershire, England, producing classic sports cars today just as it has for nearly 100 years. The original Morgan 4/4 (first designated 4-4), was Morgan's first ever four-wheeled vehicle, previous Morgan cars housing only three. First designed in 1935 with production commencing in 1936, the 4/4 is still in production today and holds the record for the longest continually produced production car in history.
