When Microsoft revealed that the upcoming Forza Horizon 3 would feature more than 350, you knew it was going to have to dig pretty deep.

Turn 10 has announced the last batch of cars coming to Forza Horizon 3, and it includes the 1972 Reliant Supervan III, as well as the 1946 Ford Super Deluxe Station Wagon.

Forza Horizon is the more arcade-like offshoot of the series. It features large open worlds with activities outside of just racing. In the lead-up to Horizon 3’s release later this year, Turn 10 has been revealing a bunch of cars that will be coming to the game.

The most unique car headlining the list is the 1972 Reliant Supervan III. It’s a three-wheeled British car made to circumvent England’s car tax. Since it technically qualifies as a motorcycle, it’s much cheaper to own. It’s also not very fast. Under the hood is an engine that only produces 29 horsepower.

“We are delighted that the vehicle is included” said Elvis Payne of the Reliant Motor Club. “Whilst Reliants are often seen as a joke to many, they still have a strong following, and the inclusion of the Supervan shows just how much these vehicles continue to excite.”

The Reliant Robin was made famous by British motoring show Top Gear. In it, former host Jeremy Clarkson had to trek across town with one goal — to not die. Because of the Reliant’s three-wheel design, it’s possible for the car to flip over. It was a funny, albeit somewhat staged segment that really put this oddball car on the world stage.

Also coming to Horizon 3 is an American icon — the 1946 Ford Super Deluxe Station Wagon. Commonly referred to as a “woodie,” it is known for its various wood trims and is often shown carrying surfboards.

Because Horizon 3 will take place in Australia, it only makes sense that some off-roaders be included as well. The 2015 Alumni Class 10 Race Car will also be making it to the game.

Best PlayStation Plus Deals: Save on Essential, Plus and Premium
Best PS Plus deals

While the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 are excellent consoles, especially for those who don't want to invest in a gaming PC, you tend to lose out on a lot if you don't have one of Sony's online subscriptions. You see, a PlayStation Plus (PS Plus) subscription offers, is access to online multiplayer, and without it, you can't connect to online servers and play with other folks, which is a bit frustrating. Luckily, a PS Plus membership does offer some additional features, such as free games every month and access to some older PS games, all of which depend on which of the three tiers you subscribe to: Essential, Extra, and Premium.
What is PlayStation Plus?
Along with online multiplayer and other in-game network features, a PlayStation Plus Essential membership grants you access to exclusive discounts and other promotions. Perhaps the most notable benefit of PlayStation Plus is that every month, Sony gives subscribers one PlayStation 5 and two PlayStation 4 games that are free to download. You have one month to add these free PlayStation Plus games to your library.

After that, these titles are yours to keep so long as you have an active PlayStation Plus subscription. The free-to-download games are generally pretty good (they are often some of the best PS4 games that have been out for a little while), and these alone justify the cost of PS Plus even for people who don't do a lot of online gaming.
