I too am waiting to hear when the new centa compensator will be dispatched to dealers.
There is definitely a communication issue between Morgan and their dealers. No one can seem to get an answer.
My view is that the mark 1and 2 compensator is not fit for purpose, hence Morgan commissioning the new version. It should be made available at cost to all existing owners.
Just for clarity, while I will be paying for the new compensator I don't know how much just yet and Mark at the factory didn't actually know a final figure when I left Malvern. If the clutch problem had not arisen leading to the engine getting pulled, then I would not have gone for the Centa unit. The compensator that was removed this week was a recently fitted one, was one of the last of the old style and was working properly. I was however a moderately long way from home (Blake may disagree on this point but he did cheat by flying in
) and I was not going to be paying for the substantial number of mechanic's hours required to change it hence the decision to bite the bullet and go for it rather than be driving around waiting for the dreaded clattering which may or may not have ever come. I believe that there are also at least some of the very early cars that are on their original compensators so "not fit for purpose" may be a bit strong.
