Reviews

The Scorpion III has had a very favourable reception from more than a dozen publications and TV programmes, including BBC's Top Gear and ITV's Pulling Power. Here are a couple of recent extracts, which sum up that reception.


"An eye-catching, breathtaking blast of a thing, which can trade punches with bona-fide supercars.... The Scorpion is impressively well engineered, the performance is intoxicating, and the fit and finish is a revelation.... Most importantly of all, the Scorpion is pure fun. I almost got facial cramp by impersonating a Cheshire cat."


"The styling is the most eye-catching this side of a Maclaren F1.... Performance is brisk, and once the Scorpion is rolling, flooring the throttle gives you the sort of kick in the back normally the preserve of F-14 pilots.... Handling too is in the Top Gun class. Steering is beautifully precise, the car is amazingly grippy, and despite its name, conceals no sting in the tail."
