The steering is severely impacted by it being a Morris Ital, no matter how you drive it.

A pair of reigns would have been an improvement.

It wasn't really quick enough to worry about (when it had 4 wheels).  When it fell to bits one day (took it in as the bumper fell off, mechanic walked past, just caught the mirror, and that fell off), it was replaced by a Maestro.  I loved that one, much quicker, larger (so I could get the stuff in it), and handled better (and Maestros handle shite).  I had no real complaints about that one.  Sadly, due to the fuel costs, it was replaced with a brand new Escort diesel. Now that truly was utter shite. Top speed was 70mph, as 4th and 5th couldn't maintain speed, it was small, gutless, and like all Fords, didn't like corners. I think I wrote that one off 3 times (failed to make a corner at about 20mph, reversed into a lamppost, had a head-on), but as we didn't have insurance and had an internal set of mechanics, it was always bodged back together.

Oh, those helicon days

That's halcyon.

A helicon is when you are sold a duff helicoil.
