Reserve Not met, US$ 17,000 best bid

Very surprised this did not sell

Best Bid US$31,965.00

No sale - Did Not meet reserve

This looked like a very nice unit so I'm surprised it did not sell but suspect a deal is not far away.

Another low mileage M3W with some interesting pre auction commentary comes up again.


2013 Morgan 3W

Steering upgrade but nothing else, so allowing for commission I would have thought $30,000 would be fair, but I bet it goes for more than that.

Looks like it has the "New" 2014 chassis and other up grades according to the seller....

Not so sure. Tick for bump steering but when the seller talks of a new post-2014 chassis I wonder if it means the chassis brace (which is not the same as a new chassis) retro-fitted to early examples? And no Centa Drive, steel drive sprocket, or cooling fan. The buyer will probably have a few Dollars to spend notwithstanding that it only has (effectively) delivery mileage on it.

I stand corrected. Having just looked at the selection of early M3Ws for sale on Hemmings, there are several at $40,000 (and quite a bit more); some with all the upgrades; others perhaps not. So let's bet on this one reaching a minimum of $38,000.

$32,250 + 5%. The buyer got a pretty good deal.

The vendor tried very hard to push this one over the sales threshold. It did not meet price expectations but I suspect this is a classic case of knowing what you are buying. Good to see plenty of references to TM for advice and that the new owner is already here.

Love the comment by one experienced owner who's mantra on the Morgan 3 wheeler appears to be;

"Buy one of these.. drive it like you stole it… fix it. Repeat"

I see the seller had advertised it on Craigslist for $34,000, which (incl commission) is what the BAT buyer paid.
