[quote=PiGo]Welcome Spizz oil! Exciting times! Mine was delivered in December and it has been an adventure so far. My advice:
1. Seats: I love the car but the seats are a disaster. I have spend a lot of money ( like you :-) ) on the car and I'm spending already a lot of money again on redoing the seats. Factory will not help you as the car is delivered so make sure that they are ok for you before the car leaves the factory. Mail to the CEO if you must. In my opinion it is a disgrace. The factory is super helpful and polite when the car is in production what is really an extraordinary service, but I was a bit disappointed that afterwards there was no service at all. That is working point if they could fix that then the experience is really from another world!!! Enjoy it and learn from my mistakes :-).
2. Ask your dealer to apply XPEL on the nose and side boards and also on the part were the softtop meets the body ( all the ways around). It is an investment of 800£ but in my opinion really worth it.
3. Be careful when cold and/or wet or just when she feels to above 4.5K rpm till.... she tends to step out at the back suddenly. Be prepared
4. Breaks can squeal when cold or wet. Common problem but there is not a solution yet I think. Mine were cleaned and sprayed at the dealer but still they squeal when cold/wet but it goes away quicker. Some left foot breaking can also help to warm them up more quickly.
Enjoy the waiting it makes the delivery even more special and if you can, visit the factory! It is amazing! If you can't wait anymore you can try to send a mail and ask if they could send a picture of the car if you are lucky they send you a picture. Also keep an eye on social media they post regularly pictures of the factory if you are lucky you can spot your car!
The Morgan experience is in my opinion out of this world if they would manage to make their after-service as good the buying and building experience I would never buy something else.

Thanks for your helpful advice. I'm approaching ownership with a mixture of excitement and anxiety.
1. During lockdown I can't visit the factory to try the seats out. Anything I can to sort this out? This would drive me nuts.
2. Yes - my dealer recommended too and I'm having that done.
3. I'll have to get used to no traction control etc. I'm going to get some tuition.
4. Sounds as if this is a common issue.
I'm already following you on Insta! Your car looks fantastic.
