The dealer could not shed much more light on what the fuel system noise fix was - something to do with replacing a switch somewhere under passenger seat area to do with fuel vapour return (I'm not techy so might not have got that quite right). Definitely something they have to do at the 3 month service rather than a home fix. I did have the factory confirm that the car was not unsafe to drive in the meantime!
Oh, they also said they might be fitting some sort of "damper" (derailleur type thing) to stop the lower bit of the belt from flapping too...
Morgan are reminding me of my time as a TVR customer - we did the final product shakedowns for them! I think Morgan rely to some extent on customers buying into the whole ethos of Morgan being a small company, hand-made products, they all do that sir etc. etc. Now that didn't work out too well for TVR... plus many customers for the Super 3 are new to Morgan and might not be familiar with that ethos - coming from Porsche or BMW or wherever, they may (rightly or wrongly) expect similar levels of quality given the price of the product. They will expect not only a reliable product out of the box but also expect BMW/Porsche levels of dealer and factory response when things go awry. This will be an interesting time for Morgan - it's customer base is changing/widening - how will it adapt?
Personally, I expected some issues being a very early customer so am not too upset. My focus is on how well Morgan treat/support us when things go wrong... we shall see!
