Our mighty adventure and first ever drive in the M3W was over after 2 hours! Recovery and a hire car some 3 hours later and we are now home minus the M3W. Morgan assistance no use as closed till 9am on Monday. Ace recovery people were great so now I need to know if local dealer Allon White need to have it and what is wrong. The alternator was the one item I could NOT see anywhere, so I suspect it's not an easy job! Any comments?


Sorry to hear this. There was a similar unfortunate post a while back on a new M3W. I think it was the stator that is buried inside the engine. I'll try and find the link.....
