Before I begin to tell you what Morgan's Super 3 is like to drive, I will attempt to describe what it actually is. Is it a car? You tell me. It has a cabin, a steering wheel, a gear lever, three pedals, a dashboard, a bonnet and a boot - but only three wheels. Is it a large motorcycle? Well, it has the aforementioned three wheels and all the car stuff, so it's not. In fact, if you buy one in Europe, it'll have its headlights set outwards like a car, but in America, the lights will be placed in the middle of its face, like a motorbike. I suppose the answer is that the Super 3 is a bit of both, but in all honesty, you shouldn't bother with such trifles as attempting to pigeonhole it, because the important thing is that it's the most fun you'll have on wheels in forever. It'll also be the most striking thing on the road for miles, so you'll be guaranteed attention wherever you go; I literally had people driving drop-top Rollers and Lamborghinis giving me envious looks.
This isn't Morgan's first rodeo as far as three-wheelers go, either. Ten years ago it launched the Three Wheeler, which did what it said 1, on the cover, but by all accounts didn't do it very well it looked fantastic and... that was about it; apparently, it was a handful to drive and was prone to coming apart. A decade down the line and Morgan's designers and engineers have upped the game to another level altogether - the Super 3 is a proper piece of equipment all right. The concept is still pretty much the same, but the way it's been put together is a world apart.
