Charles Morgan said we would get great fuel economy 50mpg & 400 miles on a tank! I get about 30 mpg & max before my courage ran out 220 miles even after changing the fuel sender to 280mm.

The fuel sender does not make it more fuel efficient! 220miles and an empty tank seems to be similar to my fuel economy. At least you had fun to drive it hard.. You can get better milage when driving lower speed. But 400miles on a tank means a tank in a trailer

Listening to that launch speech from Charles Morgan sums up just how in touch he was with reality. Thank goodness he's gone.
The man blatantly lied, for heavens sake.

Best place for him would be to replace JC on Top Gear.... Perhaps...

Possibly the earliest of the lot here - May 2011 and a lot of detail differences with current cars; 2011 Prototype

Not an early YouTube video - but features an M3W and if you have 45 minutes to spare this comes highly recommended! Even better if you can speak German! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XLZTZ2X11s

I don't speak German and I still loved it; the 3 wheeler, the presenter, and the hanger full of amazing aircraft at near the end.
