if you want a M3W before 2013: better have a good chat with the brussels dealer
he sold 30already and he can't promisse delivery-dates for more than 10 cars at the moment
MMC (factory) sold 850 of them!!!!!
order now and you won't drive it before 2014
At my recent factory visit, they told me that they were increasing the use of sub-assembly by Midland engineering firms in order to get production up to 15-cars a week, hopefully by the end of February 2012.

In view of this V-spec, if you place an order now you should have it in the first half of 2013. beer

P.S. a gratuitous picture of my own nearly completed 3W!

Thanks John, it's the same colour as my Aero SS as luckily I had some paint left over!

I hope to pick it up at the Works mid-February, as they still have some minor tweeks to do for me...

I really love your car, though I'm not Welsh, don't know the vinyl transfer process - who did it for you as from the photos they did a great job? beer

they have done a fabulous job ! everyone loves her !
the good news , when your bored you just remove the vinyls and start again .
we had her done by a cwmbran company , where we are based.

i think the car is a blank canvas crying out to be done, although with yours i wouldn't want to hide the beautiful colour.

'It's the end of the world baby!' - we both met her in Milan last year at the launch of the calender!

Did you look at the rest of the images, quite an impressive work of art eh?

Just got the pricelist from the Morgan Dealer (who reacted very promptly to my enquiry, quite impressed)

I have to admit I'm struggling with the jump from 25k sterling to 32.5k Euro... I know it's left hand drive, delivered, registered in Belgium etc but still that's a factor of 1.3, when the current FX is 1.2... and I assume the £25k already includes a dealer margin in the uk (on the other hand, if the Euro keeps weakening, 1.3 might start to look ok)

Despite this, I still want one... Have told them I would be interested if they have a cancellation, and I'm about to arrange a testdrive

One question: my house has a very steep drive. Most modern cars (and my C3) manage it, although some scrape a bit. The 3W looks like it has quite a big overhang at the back, is there any data on the front/ rear max approach angle?

Looking absolutely great - will you take it to a V Max ? Would love to swap rides again if so......

a real stunner,
but some say............you have to have a moustache to be allowed to drive one bowtie

Take your pick and see what suits you best when hooning.
I'll start growing the magnifying glass moustache
