    Morgan's 3 Wheeler is more fun than a car really should be in 2013. It's also more fun than a horse. Bear with us, it'll all make sense soon.

    Placing the huge new S&S wedge-head V-twin engine in front with a single exhaust pipe running down each side (like the racing cars of the old days) is a stroke of brilliance. It literally feels and sounds like a race-car of the early 1930s! Too bad it costs the big bucks though.

    One of the best reviews. Presenter sounds great . And the shots are gorgeous. Precise fit for such a amazing car.

    I am getting one to take the kids to school. I might get a tow hitch fitted so I can tow my caravan. Then I will fit the extra wheel that's missing. I wish they would make a diesel 4 door model. The biggest problem is going to be the roof rack. A bit pricey, but worth every shilling.

    I live in Malvern and see these pretty much daily.. I got a lift in one in the summer and it's a weird experience, 30mph has never felt so damn fast

    At 0:40 I realised this thing actually looks like it belongs in Mario Kart.

      It is in Mario kart, actually. Look up "Mario Kart 8 Tri-Speeder"

    Brilliant! Morgan should apply some of their magnesium alloy technology to a special superlite edition of the three wheeler, now that would make a really interesting vehicle. Also hope the Eva project is still progressing.

    I love these things, I love that you can play with it on the open road and keep a clean licence, Important to me as I make my living with my driving licence. Just a pity I can't afford one.

    Half the time it sounds like he's just making up words.

    • @chrisgregson3626

      He said 'chunter'. Which is a real word, see: www.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/chunter
      But, yeah apart from that all the words were made up.

    If this thing was actually cheap like it should be, I would consider getting one instead of a motorcycle.

    • @ya55er4008

      @donblub 4 роки тому +1

      sadly this is a hand build car. it takes time and skill to build it.
      if someone like toyota starts to mass produce it, then it gets cheep. but the mass will not buy it. that means it will stay expencive..

    is it legal in the US to drive?

    • @mieguistumas
      @mieguistumas 10 років тому +1

      I'm pretty sure it is. US government with its protectionism sometimes doesn't let good cars into USA, but this doesn't cause any threat for american cars, so it should be legal. But you probably would have to register it as a motorcycle - at least in my country and some others in Europe it is a motorcycle. Because it has motorcysle engine, just 3 wheels (two of which are motorcycle too), no body and so on. But thats not a problem.

    • @jameshay7247
      @jameshay7247 7 років тому

      It has nothing to do with protectionism. Impact standards and emissions standards require money and engineering to meet, although some exceptions are made for very low production vehicles. The Morgan is legally a motorcycle in the US, using an American built and EPA-approved motorcycle engine. They are sold in the US.

    the only thing that bothers me is the body. If they rounded the bottom towards the inside like most cars of that time, it would look gorgeous

    A very expensive toy for the collectors or the wealthiest of us as the rest of the morgan cars. Useless, non practical, primitive, uncomfortable. But still beautiful!

  • @thedoorsbiggestfan

    meh for that price I'd rather get a 2014 Campagna T-Rex 16S.It smokes this 3 wheeler in every aspect.

    • @ryanflippin1243
      @ryanflippin1243 10 років тому

      Well, he bought it for a fun driving experience. He said the transmission made a really loud humming sound and it road like shit compared to a motorcycle or automobile.

    • @ryanflippin1243
      @ryanflippin1243 10 років тому +1

      Ya! It looks like a fun little car, I think I would enjoy it, but his biggest complaint was that he couldn't hear the engine over the transmission. He never test drove one either. Live and learn I guess.

  • @Cielmerlion

    In the future could you not put silly music over the driving and engine sounds?

    Give the "funny" little man a bespoke hand made booster cushion to sit on ,
