Hello,
I have been thinking very seriously about jumping into the Morgan Three-Wheeler world of ownership. Wondering if any current or past owners might have some helpful purchasing tips? Maybe issues to keep an eye out for or years to avoid, upgrades worth investing in? Really any kind of positive or negative information would be helpful.
Thank you!

Well you have come to the right place
There's plenty to read on these pages and I am sure there will be some owners along shortly.

Yes, do read the well-written buyer's guide; and do not be put off by tales of woe in the Three Wheeler forum. People do not tend to post when nothing has gone wrong, which is most of the time.

Thank you for the link OZ, looks to be a good amount of useful information.M3W55, You are very right about the posting when things go awry. I was once active on the Ducati boards and 95% of posts are negative issues people have had. Most often due to neglectful owners.Sadly, my wife has asked that my two wheel days come to and end, so my motorcycles are one by one being sold. That said, thankfully she is 100% behind my owning a Morgan. Major positive!

Welcome to TM! You don't give a name or an approximate location (lots of rain cities across the globe!) which might help us point you in the direction of local clubs/dealers. Both are usually very helpful to someone thinking of ownership. Good luck with your Morgan hunt  As said many times here, the right car will find you

Welcome. If we know where you are I am sure there will be an M3W owner who would be happy to join you looking at cars.
