Just took my new car for a test drive. Absolutely brilliant !
It took me about a year to make up my mind and finally get the order placed . This was a replacement for a 2010 v6 roadster. A difficult decision because every 3.7 I have driven has been different, and some issues seemed insurmountable . Rev hang worried me after driving a 2016 car which was badly affected but I have to say it's not apparent on this 2017 model and I haven't had to pay £2000 for an upgraded ECU (mysteriously Morgan have stopped offering the option)
Power Steering was another big issue. Some of the earlier 3.7s seemed to have no feedback in the steering. I can confidently say that's a problem Morgan seem to have sorted.
I have had Suplex fitted ( another big decision because my previous Roadster had the Rutherford set up) it feels very well balanced . I took it out on a wet road yesterday and whilst not pushing it , I can report that the car behaves itself ( again unlike some of the non suplex Roadsters I have driven where the back would slide even in a straight line in the wet )
I have also made lots of cosmetic changes to the car. This is what we like about Morgan's , there are so many ways to make the car personal . No I didn't like the dashboard much, with its central dials, but we have sexed it up a bit with some carbon fibre inserts from Wolf and a beautiful stainless steel steering wheel cowling from Gremany . Also fitted a sound system and of course , sports exhaust with 4 outlet pipes , beautifully tuned by Williams Automobiles whose sales director,Paul Tovey ,has expertly guided me thorough the maze . Superb service! Thank you Paul.
