Lots of great posts and I'm so happy to see we're back on the constructive part of the constructive criticism track. Totally agree with the idea/suggestion that mmc should be using owners as great tools for info as it relates to how their cars are holding up and if improvements can be made. Someone mentioned before about Morgan only being able to put a tiny amount of miles on a test car due to secrecy. Now that the cats out of the bag I think they've got a great opportunity to use the collective experiences of all of our thousands of miles we've all logged on our three wheelers. A bit of the old student becomes the teacher if you will. As for the comment of r&d and low volume production, while not a perfect example due to price point (at least for the 3w, it's more applicable to the aero cars) icon motors is a great example of super low volume at an insane quality and reliability ( http://www.icon4x4.com/)and of course more r&d and tighter QC most likely will raise prices. Gotta run but in closing I'll leave you all with an iPhone shot from my commute this morning.

4 MILLION * Japanese cars recalled today, so even the billion dollar boys don't always get it right.
* 3.4 million according to BBC just now. Still a big number.

Now your talking.... This little baby will be fixed soon and you can enjoy many more of these outings. Good luck with this and best wishes from a sunny Sydney. Any response from your dealer yet?

Indeed. Actually had a good talk with the dealer yesterday. We're making progress. There were some personal issues on his end that I was not aware of that I think complicated/slowed responses giving the impression no action was being taken. I'll be on a 2 week business trip at the end of the month and at that time i'll be handing over the 3 wheeler for him to have at it (bevel box, paint, proper PDI, proper detail, belt whine, knocking sound in the floorboards, squeaky peddles, and misc niggles) Feeling much better about it. in a perfect would would love to not have to work out kinks post delivery but I'd love a lot of things in a perfect world that aren't exactly going to happen and that's alright! Back to enjoying the glorious weather and the 3 wheeler! B Now your talking.... This little baby will be fixed soon and you can enjoy many more of these outings. Good luck with this and best wishes from a sunny Sydney. Any response from your dealer yet?

Steady on Blake, there's only a certain amount of our-sky-is-bluer/sunnier/drier/warmer-than-yours pics before we Brits get  . Still, as I understand it, due to the Recession and Govt cutbacks, we are saving 1/4 of season costs by going straight from Winter to Summer, due sometime next week (Sunday if you're in Norfolk for some reason). Mind you Summer usually comes with  here; p'raps not this year thou...?
