2012 Morgan 3 Wheeler Roadster V Twin

Highlights

  • Only 4,300 miles from new
  • Stage 1 Garage 56 performance upgrade adding 16bhp and 21ft-lb of torque
  • Full Melvyn Rutter main dealer service history
  • In current ownership for 7 years
  • Includes desirable Brooklands wheel and original standard wheel
  • Vehicle will be supplied with 12 months MOT


The Appeal

The Morgan 3 Wheeler has become a cornerstone in the Malvern enterprise's repertoire; a spirited recapture of their iconic three-wheeled cyclecars first produced in 1910, offering that familiar agile, sharp handling and responsive personality that perfectly balances between modern performance and good, old-fashioned fun. Launched at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show, this distinctive vehicle combines vintage aesthetics with modern engineering, featuring a front-mounted V-twin engine and the reliable Mazda MX-5 transmission driving the single rear wheel.
This particular 2012 example stands out with its tasteful duck egg blue paintwork and impressive specification. With just 4,300 miles on the odometer, it benefits from thoughtful upgrades, including the Stage 1 Garage 56 kit that not only increases power but also addresses the common issue with cracked exhausts that so often plagues a factory model. 

Having been in the care of its current owner for seven years and boasting full main dealer service history, this 3 Wheeler is now waiting for its lucky new owner, who in turn will receive a well-maintained, low-mileage example of Morgan's charismatic modern classic.
