Morgan 3 Wheeler

mine should be in Brussels next week and on the road the week after
I'm really excited, my 5th Morgan (now only have the Aeromax&new 3whlr left)

mine is the second customer car, hope it more reliable than the mp4-12C

 

pictures from 2weeks ago, almost finished

 

The first one arrived in Holland a couple of weeks ago. I sat in it, I'm not that wide (180lbs at 6'1) but boy is it a snug fit. Wonder how Jay Leno fits in it.

I am still tempted by this car, I think it would be great for the narrow roads on Jersey, with their low speed limits. I bet it feels like 80mph when you're doing 40.

Very cool little thing. Only problem is getting your hands on one - the waiting list is very long.


Onno

 

AWESOME! I want one!

 

Have you been able to find out how long the wait list is for US deliveries? I too am very tempted by this one.

 

I was told it's a 2 year wait after deposit is made.
2 years is a LONG time in my opinion

 

Everyone was surprised by the warm welcome and the tsunami of orders for the 3whlrs
It is not yet confirmed for China, that may make it a 20year waiting list
(just kidding)

 

wow I will follow your topics :0

 

WOW. That is a long time. I wonder if you lose your deposit if you change your mind some time over the next 2 years?

 

I don't know about the loss of the deposit, I can't wait 2 years for any car so I didn't ask the details

 

Lol.

 

I visit the factory regularly and have been told that they are looking to get more built per year than originally planned.

There have been a few delays getting the production model to meet the required motor regulations.

Any one that wants their deposit back gets it without issue. The demand is so strong for the 3 wheeler.

 

Thats good news!

 

Is there a good list of dealers in the US? The closest I could find to me was in Colorado

 

took the baby home today
short drive (couldn't leave office for longer than "just neccesary")

I've said it before and I'll say it again, there needs to be a 25 year moratorium on using a Gulf color scheme. soooooooooooooooooo played out.

 

as for the car itself, I love it....and I'm not really a Morgan fan. I like my antiquated designs to have 4 wheels and the engine out back

the local dealer in Santa Monica has one, what a wonderfully weird car. put it on my "massive amounts of money, space, and free time" list.

Just to revive this thread. I'm going out to test drive one of these babies in about a month. I was wondering if there are any owners on here and what their experiences have been?

I saw one last fall finally and can't get the damn thing out of my head. At the time, it was a tight fit, but I learned from the local dealer that they are going to be making them 3 inches wider and extending the pedal box, so I should fit a bit more comfortably now...


Would love to hear from anyone with experience with these incredible cars...

 

had a nice trip over the Alps with mine

Innsbruck, over the Stelvio-pass toward Modena
visiting Pagani
(his son drove mine)

back over the Sella Ronda in the Dolomiti and then the Timmelsjoch towards Insbruck

had nothing to complain about
you sit very low, out of the "wind"
