Talk Morgan Forums Thread Like Summary - Values

A friend has decided to sell his 2012 Superdry and has asked me for an idea of current values. He is selling it himself, privately, and although the car has under 5,000 miles on the clock, it is not in the best condition cosmetically, although it has been tidied up very nicely. It drives reasonably well and has had the Empire front suspension from nearly new.

Can anyone suggest a realistic price as a private sale for it now please?

Many thanks.

Hi Steve, I know the long term owner well. He sold it a few years ago to the guy who put it in the auction. The long term owner raced it and wanted to upgrade. So he paid MMC to put in a replacement larger capacity engine, just over 2 litres, He continued to race it and had the distinction of being the only M3W to win a race outright against a field of pre-1952 Morgan Three Wheelers. It was at Donington about 10 years ago.

Mathewsons just sold a 2014 M3W. It was red with black interior and V screens. It had the Bleazey conversion and a special Stage 3 engine. It was well known in MTWC as having had an enthusiastic previous owner.

It was bid to £16,000 and in post auction negotiation it was sold for £18,000 plus commission, say just a fraction over £20,000 in total. That's an open market sale by an auctioneer with a high profile. Albeit it had no dealer warranty, which could be an important factor to a purchaser. However, it was a superbly spec'd M3W and that what the market thought it was worth.

With no disrespect to anyone else selling a M3W privately, that's what they have to bear in mind.

Incidentally, the Morgan Three Wheeler Touring Group are a wonderful bunch of M3W users and more power to their collective elbow.
