It does feel like it is missing a typical Morgan radiator between the cowl and the suspension mounts to complete the identity given the engine no longer dominates the view.

Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

From now on I won't be able to look at a Super 3 without seeing a robot pirate in it.

Sounds like we'd all be a bit happier if it had a nose like this. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2022/05/03/F-Type-Concept.jpg) A great modern twist on a classic theme IMO.

Agree - the thin 3-cyl engine would be ideal for a thin nose like that! Those side radiators could also do with some fettling IMHO - if not for aesthetics then for depth eg behind the turning arc of the front wheels? Dang I knew I missed my vocation as a car design ....  Maybe the Malvern team will get their design mojo back for the 3S2?

Now that is superb - part Caterham / Atom / Bugatti. A Classic I would be happy to drive.

Think a waterfall grill, although great on a 4W would look a little pastiche on a newly designed 3W. The Super 3 is trying to look forward to the future (1950's anyway) Seem to recall bemoaning about the 3W not having a JAP engine ten years ago. I like it and eagerly await my savings adding up for my 2024 delivery.

The front grille and indeed the inlets to the rads is just what I call Expamet mesh, black coated ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2022/04/25/IMG_5896.jpg) Personally I'm not too keen on how much of the internal rats nest can be seen through it, but it should be easy to swop out for something nice and bespoke, with a water jet cut perforated pattern... perhaps even shiny stainless steel
