The Stourbridge outlet is only about 5 miles from Mike Duncan's. What's going on?
This indicates anticipated closure soon.
Those who know me will be very aware that I am an unashamed fan of Mike and Ben's, so if this post sounds a bit partisan- that's 'cos it is!
I don't want to rehash all the comments I've posted in the past on the 'changing face of Morgan Dealerships'
The reasons, pitfalls etc have been well aired on here.
I was 'intrigued' -and I'll leave it at that- to see the comment (I presume expressed as a statement not a question?) regarding 'anticipated closure soon' because those of you who know the Duncans will be well aware that if Mike did intend to close or move to another site he would have the courtesy to tell his customers in good time. Moreover, it is no secret that he and Ben have always been up front about their reluctance to work on the Aero because of the cost of the diagnostic equipment vis a vis the return to a small business
What also worries me is the general lack of specialist knowledge that many of the new dealers have. Has anyone heard the story about the trad owner who was told by the shiny new dealer he visited that among the work needing to be done on his car was the checking and replacing of the wooden dowels holding the frame joints together. Oh dear!
