If the fuel pump noise you are referring to is a constant electric whine noise then mine also has this.
I also have a strong axle whine from the Diff/axle.
Wet leg, I feel this breeze around the lower front corner of my drivers door pretty much all the time. I am certain this is going to allow air/water in causing long term damage.
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.
Good to know. I am not alone. I can move this point from "issues" to "features".
The dealer principal (owned/imported Morgans for 30 years) said that this was a Morgan feature - and you would get wet in an Aeromax. In his conversations with Charles, Charles said "It is a Morgan"!!!
They are also going to remount the boot leathers with super sticky sticky stuff.
They did say just how many tweaks they normally do to the cars to get them closer to the build quality expected over here.
The draft from the door did appear to let in a little water - howere I suspect the wet leg was coming from the windscreen - water pooling inside and dripping down. So should be resolved with the screen being refitted. The fuel pump sound is totally normal - and in my view comes from it being mounted so close to the cabin - right up against the rear bulkhead. In a normal car you'd never hear it. This theory holds water when I think of my race car - flick the ignition on and you can hear the pumps pressurise and begin to whir - before being lost in a cacophony of noise.
With the sun out, I have taken the SS to work today - and will have to park it away from the client when I see them later this afternoon!! - my usual commute includes an open hairpin - which leads onto a straight perfect for overtaking. I noted this morning (at 6c) that vigourous use of the accelerator, in second gear, will get the car sliding!!

Further notes from the last 24 hours: - In the words of the great philospher Borat - the car appears to be fitted with a pussy magnet!!
I should stop going around with the wife in the car.

Time to look for a new rim set? If that is the case and you look for some Evo aftermarket options, please keep me in the loop of your findings. I may be interested as well.

I am going to go to my "wheel guy" (sounding rather Barney Stinson in that I have a "wheel guy") this evening to discuss options - repair + cost of getting a set of 18" wheels.
I believe the wheels to be EVO spec BUT his first thoughts when I saw him a few weeks back was the clearance on the brake calipers.
In further news - I have my certicate of conformity: 45: Sound Level: Staionary 70/157-1999/101 86dB(A) at engine speed 4725min-1 Drive by: 75dB(A)
No mention of the side pipes on that or the ausweiss.
