For those not following the Triking discussion in the Malvern Arms, have a look at the level of build on this Aero Cyclecar and tell me that you wouldn't be tempted - as Three Wheeler disciples? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AERO-CYCLE-CAR...=item20ffba9b67

Wasn't too sure about the colour, looks better on the zoom pics. It certainly does look well finished- pity about the 'Morgan' script on the louvred panel rear of the front wheel.

That is quality craftsmanship !  Not a fan of the colors, but there's a 'rightness' about it  If it where here in the colonies with LHD  I would be $ 31175 USD lighter Tempted ?  INDEED !

I would love it, but by only doubt would be whether it would lose too much money over a few years use, it looks great now, as it is practically brand new, and beautifully made, but a few years down the line, even if properly looked after, it would only be another kit car, whereas the Morgan, even with all its' troubles, has the name of the family behind it, and therefore always has provenance.

Yes indeed, which is why I would quite happily build one, but I wouldn't buy someone else's. That way the money you pay is for the fun and enjoyment of building it, and the resulting car has effectively depreciated to zero from day one.

I'm pretty sure that's a JZR rather than a Triking. Nicely done in any case.

Wasn't the Aero descended from the JZR?
