Flipping hell Archie, good job the 3 wheelers have rolls bars!!!

Maybe I should get them fitted to my 4/4 ??????

I’m glad you are both ok...

Archie,

So very pleased that the damage to you and your daughter is not life changing, just terrifying.

I guessed that something had caused a loss of steering control, but never thought that hitting standing water could cause such a profound loss, resulting in a roll over.

That the Roll bars did their job is good to hear, I had a bar fitted to the Plus 8 because after having had the screen side struts changed and realised that the screen on a Trad Morgan offers no more support than the screens on a M3W I felt it essential.

OK, perhaps the Aero Chassis Plus 8 is more stable than the M3W, but I really don't want to put it to the test.

Good luck finding a replacement with 3, or 4, wheels!

That is one very damaged M3W and something any prospective owner should be aware of.
