Most interesting comment I picked-up on: "... bevel box with custom designed tooth profile"
Is there hope for our perpetually screaming BB's?

I am very happy that I don't love it! I will keep mine and retire a couple of years earlier! It just looks awkward to me, maybe I am too old? No ash wood? Room for storage? Bah! But I welcome all the early Super 3 owners to the forum, and I look forward to reading of their experiences as they beta test the cars for the first couple of years. All I want to know is if Phil Bleazey can work up some brackets so that us old loyal customers can fit the new Bevel Box? "Specially designed teeth" said the video. If it doesn't sound like an Air-Raid siren, I am all in!

Morgan diehards are all dropping off their perches and this car will appeal to a younger more with-it customer profile without upsetting old rascals like me.
It’s awesome

The weight is huge. The Nobe 100GT electric three-wheeler with a roof and three seats weighs less at 500 kg. How is that possible?

What? I’m not in the “with it” crowd anymore?
Joking aside, Viper I’m sure you’re correct in saying us old fart traditionalists are not the target audience.
I’m happy many like it.

Imho these front side panels look very provisional.
In my view also the very tecnical looking (laser cut) luggage racks do not fit in with the overall shape of the threewheeler.

I really like the look of it, although I suspect in the flesh it will look considerably bigger than the current car - hopefully our friends who are up there today can give us more of a real feel about the thing in due course. Whilst I may not want one right now, I do hope it's a success for the MMC as we all need them to remain strong and profitable, but I pray that they've ironed out most of the issues beforehand this time round such that those to-be early adopters are not simply unpaid development drivers as many of us have been over those 2012-14 years.... Well done MMC however - great news to brighten a potentially gruesome day elsewhere in the world. Agreed, Phil. Let’s hope it’s a success (and reliable!). 👍

I think it is hideous. I would far rather have seen the alloy chassis carrying an Indian Vee Twin. The wheels and the side panel are wholly out of keeping with the retro ambience of the car. I suspect that it may end up being as successful as the rather prettier Vanderhall or Polaris Slingshot, neither of which have exactly set the showrooms on fire. I will not be joining the queue but hanging on to my M3W until it breaks down irretrievably.
