By the time that they are available for sale there, everything will be sorted. No worries.

Well, if life is all about managing expectations, you Aussies know what to expect!
More seriously, I'm sure it will have been worth the wait, and once on the road, you will have as much fun as the rest of us, with just a few tears along the way.

It will be critical for your owners down under to have a dealer that is prepared to hold sufficient spare parts to meet the failure rates. Failures are well documented on the forum so a list is easy to put together. If you don't have easily obtainable spare parts the car will spend a lot of time off the road whilst you wait for them to be sent over - I can't imagine they will send everything by UPS!

In NZ we dont have a dealer as such, more of an Agent. This means that there are no spares held in the country and quite frankly, they would need several complete cars worth to keep pace with the failures. My car will be off the road for for up to 10 months whilst the motor gets to be rebuilt by Morgan, fit new compensator and provide new bevel box. 6 months would be in waiting for any response and assistance from Morgan to agent. When this far away from the factory, customer service is non existant. My warranty has now expired whilst this is happening. So we will be more alone after this is sorted. So far a truly forgetable experience List of issues too depressing to enter here, ditto the months required to get any response out of morgan
