The 3-wheeled Falcon LX3 first appeared in 1986 available in kit form based on the Citroen 2CV, using both the engine and the basic chassis of the original vehicle, along with suspension components. In appearance it resembles the Lotus sports car. It has a plywood body with fibreglass fittings including bonnet and luggage compartment, and some have stainless steel or aluminium alloy fittings rather than GRP. Some 200 are thought to have been constructed.
