Rise and shine Brits, there’s an extra hour of life to enjoy!
Just in case there’s someone considering this car but put off by the “underpowered “ comments, I’d like to balance the opinions.
There’s a driving experience available to all for which this car is perfect, from country lanes, B roads and up to twisty A roads you can bumble along elegantly and immerse yourself in the environment, you’ll see and hear far more detail than any ordinary car. On those roads driving quickly is also fun, it’s very light so there’s plenty power for that but you’d need to enjoy changing gears, it has the Mazda gear box which has to be the very best I’ve ever used, up and down the gears in a hurry, it has a vintage racer feel. The engine is sweet and responsive with the added benefit of being bomb proof, on the 80th it features side exit sports exhaust which has a nice burble on downshifts and a decent rasp when thrashed. It’s really the chassis that limits the speed when you overdo it, like all trads. the suspension is superb on the right surface at the right speed, not so much if you’re being silly.😃
In summary, most of the fun of the 3wheeler or a Caterham but relatively more comfortable, certainly for any passenger. Granted all three are rubbish on a boring dueller or Motorway. The only reason I haven’t updated to a newer more powerful Morgan is I love this one too much to part with it.
