1. Heated seats would have been nice but no dice. My ski gear works well.
2. Leather storage pockets. hmm. Big enough for a phone but not much else. Don't keep maps since I use a Garmin GPS when I have to. As for keeping things in the cab, I don't. Everything necessary goes in the boot where it is nominally dry and out of sight. Only things I find I carry in the cab on a regular basis are water bottles and a large umbrella.
3. Intercom. Waste of money for me. Wouldn't use it. Don't engage in thoughtful, intimate conversations with this thing...
4. Toad Immobilizer. Have it. Use it. My insurance critters don't seem to care about it. For added security the steering wheel comes with me!
For later additions, I would strongly encourage anyone to put on the fixed center mirror between the wind shields. The side mirrors are both convex and vibrate so much as to be almost worthless.
What's your mileage? Who cares. Is it practical? See #1. What happens when it rains? You get wet.

I have a 4/4 not a three wheeler. I agree with all the positive comments about heated seats and strongly recommend them. Like some others Allon Whites' fitted mine.
Enjoy your car.

Nippymog has an ingenious storage solution that is cheap and much bigger than the minuscule leather pockets. Perhaps he will post a pic.....
The netting pocket Warbird is reffering to is simply me recycling Blackadders masterly original idea , found here : http://www.talkmorgan.com/ubbthreads.php...jobs#Post184394 I can testify how useful it is , and easy to put together once you get hold of the correct pipe clips and netting product as described in this article. I did buy enough to make a second for the drivers side , but then found with the pedals there wasnt enough room to fit it, so I would advise just making one for the passenger side.

I went ahead and added the leather storage pockets to my 2014 M3W order today. Based upon the comments here, they don't seem useful, but if my phone will fit, then I figured it would be worth paying for the option to make life a bit easier. The netting with clips is a fantastic idea too, though, so I'll also be adding that later as a way to carry larger items. Thank you for linking to the original post. I also ordered the heated seats, but did not get the immobiliser or intercom.

Q8 if I remember correctly you fitted a bag in front of the passenger.
Tim I followed Q8 and fitted the bag. It's a Willie and Max Take Along Windshield Bag - the large size. http://www.willieandmax.com/Store/WindshieldBags/tabid/137/ProductID/661/Default.aspxI've not got a pic to hand but it neatly fits on the lower edge of the passenger side dashboard and is big enough for gloves, glasses etc. I couldn't find it in the UK so ebayed one from the USA. I've also got the factory side pockets - OK for a phone but not much else.

this is the solution of my german dealer MorganPark in Hamburg, very useful for all the small stuff and not to be seen when closed: 
4 aircooled cylinders, 7 tires, not waterproof: my m3w Bluebelle (2013) and my 2CV Gundel (1990)
