They should have called it the Morgan Hooner ( 3 wheeled version ) as apposed to the 4 wheeled hooners they make.

The Nomad seems to be a toy, with no practical use other than hooning about green lanes and off road.
So I discount it.
That leaves the M3W where it belongs! I'd say that could describe both!

Interesting...my take on the M3W is that it is as useful as a fully faired motorcycle and sidecar, you can carry stuff and do so without putting on a full set of waterprrof protective gear.
The Nomad..well I'm glad I wasn't in one when I hit the cowpat yesterday....

Perhaps this is a bit unfair as I havent driven the buggy but today I had a sad moment when the M3W was nocked off the 1st place of autocar's top 5 lightweights. By the ariel nomad.
sad day. Strange - as of time of writing per http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-review/ariel/nomad it seems the M3W is still on top of the Nomad. Mind you both are nice.

I've said it a few times. A car like the Ariel Nomad woul I saw MOG mag had an article about a Morgan SUV (or at least 4WD) as a mudplugger in the same vein as a Nomad. Personally I like a bit of "body" to my cars...
