I wonder if Morgan are interested, the M3W will be 10 fairly soon and a ground up revision would be no bad thing.

That looks great - maybe a bit smaller than I had imagined. I look forward to Andrew English's full review!

To me it has a slight look of a 3 wheeled version of an Auto Union GP car.

To me it has a slight look of a 3 wheeled version of an Auto Union GP car. I see it too and I can't think of a higher compliment! The era of Silver Arrows left us with some of the most gorgeous automotive artwork in existence, IMO. I wonder if Morgan are interested After putting more miles on my ACE#10, than I got to put on my M3W ['upgrade' nightmares], I know first hand about the shortcomings of Mavlern's stewardship with Pete's initial 3-wheeler engineering (all of these thoughts are in other threads so I'll refrain from going further on this here). Pete knows how I feel; anything he builds, I'll buy! Although he wont take my deposit yet, I requested that my name be on one of the six frames he'll build once his 'first-drive to finished product' process is complete, and it was a privilege to be considered for this reservation. I'm also perfectly fine with his no-timeline approach to achieving his standards. Yes, it would look great in silver! I often dismiss silver on anything but vintage German but I agree that it would highlight the cosmetics to the 'Arrow' era; put the frame's number on the side in red to seal the image. I'm already dreaming of potential colors, but maybe that's Pete's choice too, and I'd be fine either way...

I totally agree. Auto Union Silver Arrow look.
I know what I would do with this.
Porsche GT Silver paint, cognac or biscotto Nappa leather interior, engine turned stainless steel dashboard.
3Gs, you’re one lucky guy.

It looks fantastic- Well done congratulations Pete on yet another outstanding design.
I totally agree with the visual reflection to the Auto Unions of the late 1930s C & D types and agree that silver would totally set it off.
I look fwd to reading more on this in the near future.
Fantastic post.
