There was a discussion a bit further back in this thread about contrast emblems. Well, I stumbled across this Super 3 which has the wings in a contrast colour. Thus far I've only ever seen Super 3 embroidery and all are blind so my assumption was it would be blind regardless of what is ordered. I guess this isn't the case.
Super 3 with Contrast Emblems Dear Perry - Thank you for posting the pictures. It is me who currently has this issue with Emblem being not in the color as ordered (i.e. black on black leather with everything else stitched in light grey..) I will send the picture to my dealer and see what he has to say about it.. His initial response was that Morgan told him that the stitching is ALWAYS in the color of the leather. This point its herewith proven wrong. Best regards, Adrian.
Adrian, I saw the same advert at the weekend & was also going to post it to support your argument
I have spoken to my dealer this morning over the phone and these are the findings:
- The cockpit that I ordered in "Raven Wood Black Ash - gloss" was delivered in something with a uniform piano black finish. This was pointed out by somebody else in this forum before. I find this a shame as the visible wood grain would have given the Super 3 a bit of that "Morgan" coachbuilding / vintage look. If I had known, I would simply have gone with the standard, i.e. cockpit painted in main color of the Super 3. The surcharge for the wooden cockpit will be taken off my bill. Not perfect, but still a gesture.
- Concerning the Morgan emblem stitched in black instead of light grey, the dealer got the answer from the factory that they apologize, but for cars ordered from March 2022 to November 2022 the logo was always stitched in the color of the leather. They are aware that the configurator showed something different, but they just do not seem to bother.
I am aware that the replacement of the full seat arrangement due to a wrong emblem (plus shipping to Switzerland) is a bit over the top, but still there remains a bit of a bitter aftertaste as I have the feeling that I am "right" and they are "wrong"
The dealer offered me to do the "tail tidy" option and fixed installation for a CTEK battery charger plug for free. Also nice, but if I had the choice between this and new seats....
Since I am waiting for my Super 3 since March 2022 (first promised for July, then October and then January 2023) and am really eager to drive it this spring, I decided to leave it at that and take over my Super 3 early March.
My advice: should you order your Super 3 with any stitched emblems, make sure you clearly specify your expectation in terms of color.
