Sort of. For me, I've always wanted a threewheeler, but since I'm not that mechanical inclined, an old one would be a shame to export from the UK.
The threewheeler just seem to "fit" me: It's odd, retro (really retro uunlike the Fiat 500, Mini, etc.) and utterly impractical unless we compare it to a motorcycle.
If it hadn't been for the threewheeler I would probably have bought a "proper" fourwheeled Morgan, but on a longer horizon (okay, that was badly written, but I would have waited some more years).
The threewheeler seems like a fun thing to drive, fun thing to look at, both for the people driving it and for others.
Not that I don't like the fourwheelers. I do. Both the old-school ones and the various modern ones. It's just that the threewheeler seems such a good match to an idiot like me.

Nah, all that is just rationalisation. It's lust. No way around it.

Agree, Lust was the reason I bought my first Morgan 26 years ago and it is why I am buying this one!

Can we please get an update on total orders received to date? In short, no  The factory is closed this week for Easter holidays but I'm sure we can get an updated figure next week.
