Now there is a dream that will never see the light of day, making it a nightmare. Bleazey compensator gives you some chance of easy roller swap and maybe converting to a 4 wheel machine with a standard axle rear end and two wheels back there , all open wheeled, making it look like a early indy car.

I'm sure there's may interesting permutations between CX chassis & BMW's powertrains.

& it's only a question of time before an electric or hybrid Morgan appears.

The i3 won't be replaced when its production run ends - 2024, probably.

So what chance a hybrid Plus 4, using the now-discontinued i3 system - or an all electric variant?





In a nutshell they’ve got 10years of new sales to petrol heads left, after that I think their USP will collapse? Would I buy an electric Morgan? Doesn’t push my buttons I’m afraid. goodnight

"maybe poorly engineered and executed should have been substituted for production...?"

I must say that I totally agree with this.

Mine was an early 2013 and although I got a lot of pleasure driving the car and attending numerous MTWC rallies since then, I have now sold the car after having most of the upgrades done and a few additional mods of my own.

I would define ownership as a roller coaster of elation and disappointment.

Elation:- From the absolute pleasure of driving it and the total camaraderie with fellow owners and club members.

Disappointment:- With the lack of proper development before launch, poor choice of materials and/or design (i.e. rear sprockets and chassis tubes and many other points too numerous to mention) and the failure to live up to expectations for a car costing this amount of money.

You need an incredible amount of patience and deep pockets to own one of these.

I should add that personally I’m pleased that I got one of the 2500 M3Ws and I’m looking forward to keeping it running until I can’t remember how it starts. drive

Yes, this is not a take to the big box store machine.

Just watched the video and noticed daylight under the inside tyre as it bounces around (2.03 minutes)

That will inspire confidence for somebody considering taking a plunge into the Morgan three wheeler last chance saloon laugh2

At least they had the sense not to film it going round a left hander......
