Competing thoughts:

1. Sounds like order to delivery in the US is about 3-4 months? But that puts us northern-winter folks in the situation of receiving a current order in, say, November. The 30 month warranty means we get 3 non-driving winters and 2 driving summers under warranty. So order in the winter for spring delivery to maximize miles under warranty.

2. Screw that. Order now, drive it while still alive, and forget the warranty. Who knows when delivery will really occur anyway, price may go up in the meantime, and who knows when things will go wrong that need fixing.

I assume most of you avoid salty winter roads.

When I decide to do something, I do it. The M3W isn't really a logical purchase anyways, why dilute the pure, unadulterated pleasure of getting one with something as rational as season or warranty?

Cheers,

Something that might bring your Morgan future rebuild forward from 20 years to 8 years?
Not something you'd consider with a Camry... but that's the whole point of course.

PS You also need to update your will when you get a Morgan! It will likely live long after its owner...

Totally agree. Just order it and forget about it. I was told 3 months from order to build slot, which has become (at their latest estimation) 6 months...

You're applying logic to an illogical decision. That's illogical.

True the Morgan is the least logical car decision you can make! Why put it off? Your breathing permit could expire at ANY time!
