I just watched the 5th Gear episode where Tiff drives one around their track. That car actually was quite well balanced for its day!
It was really, even allowing for the fact that performance was very limited. They did have a slight tendency for wheel bearings to crumble unexpectedly, and two of my friends both had the unique experience of watching their own wheels overtake them!
I am reminded of a previous thread in here about winter driving - the Morris was really good in the snow, due probably to low torque and very narrow tyres.
