    This is the single greatest M3W video ever, and there are a lot out there! Glad you're still having fun with it. This has absolutely convinced me (mostly because of the shoddy build quality) that I'm going to build my own as a project. Thinking of buying a crashed Ducati motor on eBay and building a Bucati three wheeler! Thanks for the inspiration.

      I bought a Campagna T-Rex.Powered by a 1000cc BMW motorcycle engine, Fast & Expensive. I had a Polaris Slingshot before the Campagna. Drove the Morgan & Vanderhall too. The Vanderhall Venice is great for $30
      grand. Front wheel drive, turbo charged GM 4cyl.

      @@verygood7155 You got yourself a great machine. I've read that in 2020, Vanderhall has added more width to their rides. I really like them and wish Vanderhall success.
      I'm looking at a Vanderhall Blackjack for
      $24 grand since the T-Rex is gone. I can fully envision myself doing a full on cross country road trip from Washington to Maine in a Vanderhall. I've spoken to a few former Morgan owners and they were glad to have gotten rid of them. Overpriced in my opinion.

    I have a couple of Morgan's that I look after a plus 4 and a 4/4, they always bring a smile! Taking them for a test drive after maintenance always a joy. I built a triking with a Moto Guzzi engine twenty five years ago and it still going strong, new owner drives it everywhere. Last time I checked it had over 125000 miles on the clock! The alloy bodywork now very patinated but still gorgeous. Now want it back but no chance of prising away from owner. Maybe time to build another........

    Honestly I’ve never ridden in any car that sparks as much joy with everyone as a Morgan. My entire life my grandparents owned a 4/4 and no matter where you went, people would always wave and smile around you. Even when it’s parked, crowds will gather and ask about the car. And different to other cars, people aren’t dickheads or jealous- everyone just has a great time experiencing the cars with you.
    So basically a Morgan can’t ever be a bad car, cause it’s a Morgan.

    What this clot means is that in America they have not a clue how to maintain a simple vehicle such as the Morgan, which by the way has very good handling. The Morgan poses no problems whatsoever to British owners which means the British enthusiast has a broader understanding of basic engineering.

      @Rogerand Out: LOL. If you want to generalize an entire nation... Here goes! You said, "Brits have a broader understanding of basic engineering". I say, "British have no clue how to maintain proper dental hygiene." Maintenance complexity comes from POOR engineering. To remove the entire front clip from a Mini Cooper to replace an alternator is stupid. In America most can be changed in less than 30 minutes.
