The most expensive of supercars will never make you smile as much as some of the lightweight, sporty models on sale today, matty_prior says

Its thumping air-cooled V-twin engine was of almost a litre capacity per cylinder, and the resulting torque output was so uneven that it needed a separate system mounted behind it to smooth that out so it didn’t shake its Mazda five-speed gearbox to pieces.

The ride was quite uncomfortable, the driving position lacked adjustment, the grip was limited and the turning circle was measured in furlongs. I loved it. As with the GT86, it was mostly my fault that it received five road test stars on these pages and is the sort of car that you have to love because of its purity, not despite it.

That might not be such an issue with the Super 3. On the face of it, it’s another three-wheeled Morgan. But most strikingly, it now has a sensible Ford engine , which is covered by the body and set further back, because its torque output doesn’t need calming down before it reaches the gearbox – and the advances don’t stop there. They barely start there.

That’s made smaller again by a narrow body with discreet vanes mounted close to the bodywork, directing air to the radiators.
