Well guys, the time has come, I'm putting my M3W up for auction on Bring-a-trailer in the U.S., the link to the online auction can be found below, the car is currently in Texas: http://bringatrailer.com/listing/2013-morgan-3-wheeler/It's bittersweet, but I've had a yen for an Austin Healey 100-4 for a while now, and I need the garage space. The time has come to move on, but I'm already missing her! I've posted here at TM since I bought the car, and I'd like to thank you all for the tons of support over the years, I've never encountered a more responsive community!

Maybe putting up for auction could be a good move, only time will tell, though I assume you have a realistic reserve on it?
Good luck with the sale, and let us know how you get on with the 100-4, I had a 3000 mk11 many years ago, and wish I still had it as I now can't afford to buy one at todays prices. [Well I could, but don't want to pay all that money for an old, I mean, classic, car now.]

Well, the bidding's up to $20k USD...we shall see. Funny, now that she's on the block, and looking at the pictures, I'm having second thoughts <grin>.
Since we're talking, is anyone out there particularly knowledgeable on Healey 100-4's? I have some pics of a car I'm considering that I'd like to run by an expert...
I can't really find a good, responsive, Austin Healey forum...could it be that most owners are too old to use a computer (I know that was unkind <grin>)
