I think the percentage of early chassis failures may be considerably higher than you suspect. Out of the 5 early M3W owners in France I know plus myself, there have been 3 chassis failures and there must have been one other as well from someone I don't know, since I know Marcassus had replaced two in Toulouse and two French cars (including mine, were done in Malvern). It may be that the early LHD chassis are more prone to failure than RHD. There are at least another 4 or 5 contributors to this forum who have had chassis failures. One had his replacement chassis fail as well. There must be a Mk2 and Mk2a chassis as my new chassis does not apparently need inspection according to today's email to me from Morgan.
I don't know if Morgan reused the wrongly installed (Marcassus local agent in Le Castellet) replacement chassis on mine, when they rebuilt it for the second time, as there was some question about the first replacement chassis having been dropped and bent but there were so many porky pies being told by the various participants over the whole three year mess of my chassis replacement, I have no idea who was telling the truth and who was making up malicious stories.
My original 2012 chassis failed in July 2015 at just over 4000km, with no competition use. It was not working satisfactorily again until November 2018, when I collected it from Malvern.

What interesting contributions we are now seeing.
Sure as hell Morgan aren't going to say how many and what type of failures unless they are responding to a subpoena or standing in the dock under oath.
This is not "progress" this is safety....
