The Morgan 3-Wheeler's history dates back to 1910, offering a lightweight, minimalist machine that was often taxed as a motorcycle. This formula was revived in 2012, pairing the classic three-wheeled layout with a modern S&S V-twin engine and a 5-speed Mazda gearbox. Its hand-built construction and raw, visceral driving experience give it a unique place in the automotive world.
Collectors appreciate the 3-Wheeler for its direct connection to motoring's past and its undeniable character. The exposed engine, bug-eyed headlights, and fighter-plane-inspired cockpit create an unforgettable visual and sensory experience. It's a vehicle that prioritizes fun over outright performance, delivering wind-in-your-face thrills unlike anything else on the road.
The market for these cars includes both pre-war originals and the more common 2012-2021 models, with an average sale price around $41,546. While top-spec modern examples sell for up to $67,000, older project cars can be found for just over $10,000. Values for the modern version have depreciated from new but are now relatively stable, reflecting their consistent enthusiast demand.
Buying Tips
- Check for cracks in the chassis, especially on early models. Pay close attention to the areas around the front suspension mounts.
- Inspect the bevel box, a known weak point, for leaks or excessive noise. Ask for records of upgrades or replacements.
- Look for a 'bump steer' compensator kit. It was standard on later cars and is a highly recommended upgrade for earlier models to improve handling.
- The S&S V-twin is tough, but check service records for consistent oil changes. Listen for any unusual sounds during a cold start and test drive.
- Examine the rear tire carefully. Due to the car's layout, rear tires can wear out quickly, so factor in a potential replacement.
Prices range from $10,450 for project cars to $67,000 for top-spec modern variants.
