From my limited experience in Morgan-world, it would appear that buying and owning a Morgan is an emotional experience, far more that most other cars, and Morgan dealers trade on this emotional investment - some authentically and others perhaps not so. I would have to imagine that an authentic Morgan dealer and enthusiast would be honest and open about year of manufacture, model year and year of registration. This is basic information and is certainly made very clear in Porsche-world where I currently reside. My guess is that it's the damage to your Morgan owning experience that you need to repair, rather than just a cash grab?
Of course, any sale is two-way and buyers have a responsibility to check such detail. And its easy in the excitement of buying to overlook such matters.
Thanks for the thread though as it will make me a bit more wary when buying mine (and where I buy it from).
And good luck with your Morgan!
