What I'm talking about is a three wheeled car/motorcycle where the body of
the car/motorcycle lean invard when turning around corners.
I think Mercedes made one a few year back, but can't find any link to it.
And I have just seen one presented at a TV-show with cars. But I did not
catch the name of the machine.

If it is a car or a motorcycle I dont know. It has three wheels, all of them
open like on a motorcycle, but is has a cockpit where the driver (and
passenger) sits. It is that cockpit/body that tilts sidewise.

Any hint for information about this is welcome.

I think you mean the Carver.
It was just presented in the BBC program TOPGEAR.
Here is a link:

It does look cool to drive!
