THIS is Why I've Bought a MORGAN SUPER 3! Future Shmeemobile First Drive

  • The new Morgan Super 3 is here at @TheShmuseum, and now I can show you exactly why I've bought one! It's the successor to my former 3 Wheeler, with an excitement and enjoyment unrivalled by anything else. Let's go for a first drive and a sense of the experience.
    Morgan first made 3 wheeled vehicles back at the start of their history in 1910; over a century ago. I had the previous model; the 3 Wheeler, in the Shmeemobiles back in 2014 for a short period and what a fantastic amount of fun it was. However, with the launch of the new Super 3, it's time to do this again because it was always one of the most fun experiences I ever enjoyed in a car.
    The Super 3 features huge numbers of upgrades from before; new superformed bodywork, a Ford sourced 1.5l 3-cyl engine in board making 118bhp, and plenty of bespoke customisation when you run wild with the configurator. There's no roof to this, and with 40 degree Celsius temperatures on a record day in the UK, it's quite the hot experience!
    It's hard to describe what it's like to drive the Morgan Super 3, it's unlike anything else, taking you back in time and making it all about the smiles per mile and huge enjoyment that it brings. The Super 3 is a modern take, bringing digital displays and some tech into an otherwise very analogue experience.
    I've got an order down and expect the car to arrive probably in early 2023, but before that we need to spend a lot of time working on a unique spec and making it a true Shmeemobile! I wonder if mine will ever do a lap of the Nurburgring...
    Thanks for watching, Tim

    Hey shmee I knew you would buy one, I’m buying one as well.
    You say it’s a small car, it ain’t that small you know ,and as you found out when you came up close with a lorry,it is a wider car too,
    Even wider than the existing one, and that is also wide
    I’ve been up to the factory and the public morgan experience many times as I’m 22 miles away, this new super3 is even more amazing than it predecessor when you see it in the flesh, not even your videos of this car do it as a much justice as when your one feet away from it.
    If any of you are wishing that it had an V-engine, please make an effort with friends n family to the factory if you can as you will be presently surprised how beautiful sculptured this 3wheeler is.

    Absolutely agree with everything he said, a very good friend of mine was visiting from Australia this summer and we hired one to spend the day touring around the Malvern hills, I will never forget the day, beautiful weather, I hadn't seen my mate for many years and we had an absolute blast, everyone was smiling and waving, everyone stopped to ask us about the car, we simply could not stop smiling and giggling like little schoolgirls whilst driving it - it was superb. We were messing about doing drive by videos on some moors where there was a family having a picnic, in any other car I have no doubt they would have been annoyed with us disturbing their peace, but they loved it and gave us a cheery wave. I've driven a few performance and luxury cars, nothing gave me more pleasure than that day with the Morgan.

  • @pm375
    @pm375 Рік тому +9

    My only design improvement suggestion would be to double the height of the roll hoops to draw a straight line to the hood in order to protect the average sized driver upon going inverted. Or, even better, offer an optional F1 style halo device. This would work quite well, since the central support beam would be located left of the driver’s sightline.

    • @j1b996
      @j1b996 Рік тому +2

      This is actually a decent idea, but their market is mainly fans of the classics who probably wouldn’t want a halo considering they are relatively recent and ruin the ‘classic’look

    • @Jubie82
      @Jubie82 Рік тому +1

      If you were to do that for that reason you would also need to fit a 5 point harness to hold you inverted as well as some padding, arm restraints helmets & other things to make the system work. Its not that simple. I drive a Porsche 356, no roll bar, no seat belts just a lot of care!

We borrowed it for the day, and we took it on the interstate, in a construction zone, beside semi trucks. Now, if you're in anything else, its fine. But in the Polaris, there were rocks being thrown off the road, and we felt TINY compared to anything else. It was TERRIFYING

    Great review, however many of us do use our Morgan Three Wheelers for long range touring rather than just for quick trips to the pub. Only a few weeks ago we had 50 M3Ws on the Isle of Man for a week which caused quite a stir.
    In the last 12 months I've done 12,000 miles in mine with trips to Wales, Scotland, Lake District, France, Belgium and the Isle of Man with Switzerland and Italy coming up in Sept. The Super3 should be even better for touring with the luggage, storage and accessory mounting options. I'm certainly looking forward to driving one soon.
