I wonder what the excursion on to the grass was about ? There didn't seem to be a corner there, so did he just carelessly run off the road or what ?

Good to see Steve from Morgan was at hand to help pull him out of the grass verge

Nicely done and a great plug for Morgan, as well as the 3-Wheeler.
Due to the placement of the camera (and mic) at the front, you don't really get a truly authentic feel of what it is like to drive. You don't hear ANY engine noise or mechanical thrash at all in this black prototype, as it is completely un-silenced with straight through pipes.
All you can hear are the exhausts, though it does die back a bit when you are cruising, but under acceleration it sounds fantastic though it is pretty noisy!
The development team are working on silenced pipes, but we (Asbo and I) advised that they should be easily convertible to these straight through pipes, to give the best of both worlds...

That is odd, because it is a link to the MMC M3W site. Try this
