You are probably, no certainly, too young to remember the old Morgan Threewheelers, but no worries becasue they’re bringing it back with a sort of modern design!

It still looks pretty classic and has the same layout as the original, but has a new structure underneath with a “Screaming Eagle” 1800 cc engine from Harley Davidson and a Mazda 5 speed gearbox. It’s got 100 bhp and just 500 kg total weight, so it’s fast!

The car features a sturdy tubular frame and two rollover bars surround the passenger compartment to keep them safe. A leather padded aircraft style cockpit indulges the feeling of ‘flying through the air’. Refining the original design has produced a unique 21st century vehicle.
