I had the SS fail MOT on the handbrake at my local garage. I thought it would be a simple issue of getting a new set of brake pads delivered the next day - I must have been smoking something! The hand brake assembly is made by AP Racing (why for parking??) and the pads are Brembo. The garage got through to Brembo but they will not sell them to anyone other than Morgan - so another 3 week delay until I finally received them at a cost of £224 for something that's only slightly bigger than one found on pushbikes! However, they said I was lucky as if it was the rear wheel brake pads then thats a six week waiting time! For a consumable item that is outrageous. It makes you wonder why we ever stay loyal to Morgan!

Which is why they are near useless in the first place. I once owned a 1965 Jensen CV8 with four wheel Dunlop disc brakes. The mechanical handbrake operating on rear discs was useless as well, but would have expected an improvement in the following 55 years!
