Could this mean something may drop off when one is going to the shops to get some milk etc ?

Better keep below 30 for a while until it's sorted.

Its to remove the ARB - it ruins the car's ability to manage mid-corner apex bumps.

Quite possibly so I would take the Plus 8 instead of walking round on your own

I made a call this afternoon to get some understanding of what the recall was about.

Firstly its not a recall as such Morgan has identified and been working on a number of improvements based on feedback from early owners and they have decided to make a number of changes based on this.

The HVAC system has been identified as requiring some modification as I understand it is not reaching the upper and lower temperature ranges so needs a modification. I believe that this may require some re-routing of the plumbing so is best dealt with by MMC rather than the dealers.

While dealing with this the factory have planned to undertake a software update which will for example open the boot from the key fob. Mine won't do this at present which can be a PITA.

In addition to all of this some changes are also being made to the suspension with up-dates to bushes and other suspension components being done.


I believe that after the issues with the 3 wheeler Morgan have decided to adopt a more proactive approach to problem solving for the new aero.

Mine is going to be get booked in sometime before Christmas and I'll post an update when this happens.
