A Ford engined 3-wheeler for sale here at what looks like a very competitive price. Interesting that at the base of the page there is a 3 wheeler in bits for sale at only £4k less than this 3 wheeler The concern I have, and the reason I believe the 2011 Morgan Three Wheeler will be a success, is that a reasonable degree of mechanical/engineering competence is required to keep a vintage 3Wheeler on the road. As I lack that, they are a no-go area for me.

plus the fact that when you go for a spin in your vintage 3 wheeler, you don't want to have to 'get out and get under' every few miles.

Simon, if I can do it, anybody can! @Steve: For me, getting it going again with hammer and string at the roadside is part of the fun and gives me some satisfaction. Nothing more boring than things which work faultlessly - perhaps a reason why I stick to old Morgans  . Frank

@Steve: For me, getting it going again with hammer and string at the roadside is part of the fun and gives me some satisfaction. Nothing more boring than things which work faultlessly - perhaps a reason why I stick to old Morgans  . Frank I do understand, having spent quite a bit of time fixing my first cars (Sunbeam Alpines Series V), and I would be happy to do it to keep an Original ( I suppose we must use this term now) Morgan Three Wheeler on the road. If there was room in my garage it would be filled with a MTW Aero. It's just the thought of having to do something to it each weekend to prepare it for the next week's outings. (My wife thinks I am married to A11OGE as it is  )
