Simon, thanks for your involvement with the Three Wheeler owners troubles, and yes, if you can think of a way of organising structured Feedback to Steve Morris, I think it would be beneficial to both the factory and us, especially if there was a bit more communication the other way. I think this could be very important, a lot of the issues that we have are blown up out of all proportion because we get frustrated by the lack even basic communication from the factory, such as, "yes we hear you and are working on things", nothing which will upset their dealers, but useful for all, rather than 'there is nothing wrong with the car,and it is all down to a few owners moaning about nothing'.
With reference to upgrades I don't think anyone seriously expects to have free parts, but it would be nice if they could be made available to existing owners at cost price or cost plus 10% to cover handling etc. and it would be interesting to know if the bevel boxes that are being replaced under warranty will have the new 'sound deadening' kit fitted by the dealer at the same time.
Stuff like that.
PS We have no need of 'Scrimpy' down here in Somerset, but the scum does have to be cleared off the top of the vats before a pint glass is dipped in and filled.

LOL...Scrimpy!  I must have had a drop too much of Scrumpy ( the "I" key sits next to the "U" key so easy to hit with blurred vision!) when I typed that!

Well, Basher Boshly,
I am 6ft 3in tall or thereabouts and I fit into my 3 Wheeler reasonably well, especially now that I have installed a 50mm steering wheel spacer from Krazy Horse. If you are not much taller than that, you should fit in too (as there is no roof, your big head will not pose any problems).
I have also driven a Brabus Smart Roadster, which I liked very much apart from the crap transmission. I was quite comfortable in it, though getting in and out was almost as difficult as is the case with the 3 Wheeler. I do not recall a bump steer problem with it, but I drove it on smooth roads in the South of France.
So you should stop moaning about not fitting into these things.
