Hi Paul There are about six M3W cars in NZ with another on its way soon I believe. They are spread from Kerikeri down to South Island. I am in Auckland and there are two others here too. Whereabouts are you?
Hi Nigel Thanks for reply, I'm in Hastings. Well must admit I find all the issues with these cars rather worrying. Have you had any problems with yours? And the other cars here? Is Fazazz the only agent in NZ? I have emailed them numerous times without response
Hi Paul Mine is an early car, April 2012, . We have had the " normal" niggles re exhaust and rectifier. Bump steer ok but will get comfort kit fitted. Bevel box is noisy We have been unlucky with regard to the motor with issues with ECU, timing belt and camshaft. Conversely the other car that came in the same container has had no significant issues!!!!!! They are great little machines to drive and enjoy, the complete opposite to the daily driver. It is just frustrating. We are first time Morganeers, and have been told that tolerance is an absolute must for Morgan ownership, no matter what type you have. Gavin at Fazzaz is hard to get hold of, his premises suffered badly in earthquake and they do not yet have premises. He may be overseas at moment.
When it's going its funtastic but !,
We have spent a weekend away with the Mog club in Taupo, and had a great time.
I love new words that say what they mean. Well done.
Paul, welcome to TM and the Eagle Three Wheeler Squadron, I have long ago come to the conclusion that each and every one of us is a bit nutty [some more so than others!] but when the car is going and going well, you will forgive it everything.
Hello Paul, firstly welcome to Talk Morgan and secondly pleased to hear of another Morgan in NZ. I can pm you with Gavins home number if required as he can be a bit hard to contact. Otherwise you can contact Auto Restorations in Christchurch they do all of the warranty work for Fazzaz phone 03 366 9988. Happy Mogging Randall

Thanks for input, think I will hang fire and see how the 2014 model works out . Would be quite a mission and expense to have to have the warranty work done in Christchurch,so hoping most of the problems have been sorted Paul
I'm in Auckland, New Zealand and I've just ordered a M3W. No idea at this stage when it will arrive but the local dealer hopes it might be here for Xmas/Summer which would be awesome
Hi There are a few M3W in Auckland with most being members of the Morgan Car Club Our car appears to be similar colour ie Sport Sand. If you want to see it the flesh, so to speak, we could arrange to meet. See photo. Tolerance and patience are a must with Morgans, but you will know that already from this forum. P Dron has written a good warts n all book on the M3W you might like to buy. Refer other thread. Available ex Wordery
