Can't see the video (UK only?), but I do remember this interview. Or maybe it was another where he mentioned his initial reluctance to going back to 3 wheeler production. As I remember in his view Morgan should aim for modernity with new models (does anyone remember the EvaGT ?), not nostalgia.

Whatever made him change his mind I don't know. In any case, he didn't survive the M3W. Funnily enough, in folk culture he is the only person blamed for its rushed start of production. Considering the never before seen amount and frequency of engineering blunders by MMC after his departure, one has to suspect "Sir Charles Morgan" was a very convenient scapegoat, fantastically achieving this: no recognition from putting the M3W into production; blame for putting it too early.


Hello Mario,

All available evidence suggests that the M3W was put into production far too rapidly with insufficient engineering development and testing. It would be unfair to blame only the person at the top, but...
