The footwell and bar below the dash look very unfinished! This is one of the 12 month old Engineering prototypes so not necessarily representative of production.

So as promised some shots of one of the test Super 3's as displayed in London this weekend
Thank you for posting the pictures. Two notes: first, I can only imagine how hard it is to get a single digit licesne plate registered in the UK.  Secondly, the adjustible peddle box is a great addition. I hope they are able to do more to cover up the sliding rails. That looks both hell for shoes and a cleaning nightmare with all the stuff that would fall down there. I hope Morgan does well with it. Again, I'm glad to have the five speeder.

Thank you for posting the pictures. Two notes: first, I can only imagine how hard it is to get a single digit licesne plate registered in the UK. Transfering a registration to a car/bike is a fairly easy process in the UK and is free (as long as it meets certain critieria - you are not allowed to make a car appear 'younger'). However, buying a 'single digit' number plate is a different matter - a double digit plate is usually £400K, so I can imagine a single digit being in excess of £1m. The '3' on the Super 3 will be for show purposes only and not permitted on the road.

Talking to the chap (he has a freelance test driver) manning the display, it was an early version and they are working on a neater floor / adjustable pedal system that will not need a contortionist with a box of spanners to adjust. The lack of trim to some of the interior was due to this being an actual test mule and it had done several 1000's miles on the various test tracks at Millbrook proving ground https://www.millbrook.co.uk/

The '3' on the Super 3 will be for show purposes only and not permitted on the road. Have a look again at the Launch video. The silver and black ones also bear the number '3' (all at the same time !) So my guess is that it has nothing whatever to do with a real U.K. registration, and (if they are reading this) MMC will be pee'ing themselves laughing that we would think they would squander their resources that way. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2022/04/26/3-wheeler-number-plate-from-launch-video.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2022/04/26/3-wheeler-number-plate-from-launch-video-black-car.jpg)

Yep, hence the comment: .The '3' on the Super 3 will be for show purposes only and not permitted on the road.

Apologies if it seemed I was disagreeing with you. As a pastiche wouldn't "S3" have made more sense ? I like this story (often quoted online):
The first car number plate ‘A1’ was famously issued to the Earl Russell, who made his butler queue up overnight at the London County Council offices to secure it back in 1903 when the Motor Car Act was implemented by parliament.

3S is apparently available, but it's 'call for price' so imagine over £1m

Do you happen to have some decent pictures of the technical fabric used in this one?
