Sorry guys - as a convinced chain user - I cannot help to react on this fine article.

In a change since that road test, the Super 3's final drive is no longer by rubber belt but
by chain, which is said to be quieter and need less frequent adjustment, and the rear brake is now a disc, not a drum.
To drive, the Super 3 is charmingly simple. A thrummy triple-cylinder engine up front, three pedals, a Mazda MX-5 manual gearbox and single rear-wheel drive. The sports exhaust (£745) adds an appealingly burbly rattle, with some other mechanical noise provided by the gearbox - or the transfer case that turns its rotation through 90deg, plus the chain drive to the rear wheel.
There is a whine to it that meant on motorway journeys I often wore earplugs (and I always wore a full-face helmet),
but apparently it's still better than the squealy belt that was fitted to the first Super 3s, before it was swapped to a chain (at the same time, a disc brake replaced a drum at the rear).
