That and the single black roll bar make it look so low and sleek.

Same with the unfinished welds noted on the frame fishmouth tubing. If I tried to pass that through my FAA inspector, he would flunk me and possibly report me to the aviation authorities.

Good demonstration why the term “roll bar” is somewhat optimistic. Maybe “headrest hoop”?

It does look a bit higher and certainly not so safe, says he with a Plus 8 where the only thing higher than your head is the weak windscreen frame all part of the joy of ownership. That black helmet suits it..

That black helmet suits it.. Between the height of the rollbars, and the fixed P101 wind deflectors, if you have very quick reflexes, you may have just enough space to safely duck under the protection of the P101 touneau cover in the event of a rollover. Then, you can use your equally quick reflexes to escape from the interior space just before the vehicle catches fire. Thus this is a perfectly safe design in the event of an emergency! If not, as Jay Leno points out, the Morgan 3 Wheeler is perfectly coffin shaped. There won't be a more stylishly ensconced corpse in the cemetary!

Very good  , having watched a few getting in and out of these flying machines I am just hoping and praying nothing untoward happens.

The zipper holds the drivers side to the passenger side, which has the liftthedot studs. Is the driver's tonneau rigid otherwise what keeps the lower edge in place? Would the rigid tonneau fit in the boot?
