Yesterday, rather disturbingly, we found that the rod inside the nearside front damper had fractured right at the top. We have the Suplex units used for a few of the very early 5 speeders. Peter and Dan @ SSL (who did the original development work on the M3W suspension a lot of which was discarded in the cost driven shift from these Suplex units to the standard Spax units) were extremely helpful pointing us to the firm that built the dampers for Suplex ... they are going to repair the unit for a modest sum. Interestingly we heard that SSL are nearing completion of a new suspension kit for the M3W ... given their reputation for improvements to other Morgans, this sounds interesting.
All credit to the specialists in the UK motor industry for help sorting this in just a few hours...not sure how long would have taken to sort via MMC and likely a lot more expensive!
