One or two of you may have noticed a few posts from me asking questions about a 4 wheeler Mog? Well, I've only gone and done it, so if anyone wants a really good 'sport Caramel' Three Wheeler, with restrained graphics, an Empire Geometry Correction kit, and some really neat little mods, like a parcel shelf and hidden glove locker, Brooklands screens etc etc, then Newtown Motors have just, today, taken such a car in part exchange.
I've brought home a 4 seater Plus 4, don't know if it will suit me, or me it, but it's worth a go. I think my wife will be happier in it, and may even drive it, and for sure, my three little terriers will like the ride in the back.
Now the big thing, I would still love to build up a lightweight, space framed Three Wheeler, but would need to find a badly damaged one to make it financially viable, so please, if anyone in the UK spots one for sale or even knows of one, do get back to me ASAP, so I can have a punt at it.
I will visit here often and keep posting if my experience is of any use. It's been fun knowing you all.

Congratulations Paul. Pics please! If I was going to 4 wheels, it would need 4 seats too.

Sorry to hear you have given up on the M3W Paul, cannot say I blame you. Thanks for pioneering the Empire Kit, a great improvement. I will miss your input on the 3 wheeler part of TM. As for building up a lightweight 3 wheeler, can I suggest you have a look here http://trikingsportscars.co.uk/. It even has a fully sorted engine that was designed to run the same way in the airflow without the need for a fan, how well engineered is that!

Sorry to hear this as well Paul. We will miss your comments and input on our little cars. Thanks for all what you did for your fellow riders. But as long the Caramel is not sold, let your wife ride the 4W and you behind her with the Caramel. This will be best of both worlds for sure !

Well done. How about a road report in a couple of weeks. It will make an interesting comparison.

it seems that the dark side is less dark than in the black hole

Welcome to the dark side Paul! You're safe here! The dark side ? I'd say more like the sunny side of the street. Congratulations on the new acquisition Paul - I hope it works out for you.
