    I've been a big fan of these odd little cars since the first time I'd heard of them many years ago. I'm glad they are back on the market, just wish I had $60K for what's really a very cool toy.

    The biggest advantage of this three wheel set up is that you don;t need a differential, therefore your handling characteristics is determined only by your front suspension type and geometry.

    I've been keeping my eye on the Elio, an up and coming, American made three wheeler that is not as sporty but more practical and much less expensive than the Morgan. Hopefully, Elio will make it into production and meet it's goals for price, safety, and economy. The Morgans are pretty awesome cars, though.

    • @briotone
      @briotone 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Paul, no contest between the Elio and the Morgan. You have to drive the Morgan to experience the fantastic feeling you get!! Although I have not driven the latest model, I have owned two 3 Wheel Morgans in the past. Both with Matchless MX4 wáter cooled engines. No vehicle in the years since have even come close to how I enjoyed those cars!!

    • @WiiiRRRttyy
      @WiiiRRRttyy 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Paul. I too am watching the Elio with interest. It's a great idea but I do feel they are missing a trick by not pushing the sporty angle. They should offer the same standard version alongside a more expensive (small engined) high performance version. It will boost the image and help sales across the board.

    At the cost of around 50K I have to think that a 3 wheeler like a Polaris is a better option. But, I'll certainly stick with my S2000. Recall driving a Morgan Plus 4 with a TR engine and a Jaguar Moss transmission in the 60s. Interesting and enjoyable experience.

    • @ninobur1

      The biggest sales of pretty much everything are in the USA,but this british mentality regarding to industrial production are the roots of their industry's ruin,the "Somebody's gotta come with a suitcase of money and pay,no matter how much we charge" just because it's made in the UK

      I don't think you're thinking this out. I highly doubt anybody who is buying a C7 Corvette would be comparing it to the Morgan. The Morgan offers a completely different driving experience compared to the Corvette and is also not a car that is bought with logic, it's pure emotional fun.
