We wouldn't be without our heated seats in the roadster.I had them fitted in the plus 4 too. The best value accessories you can have pound for pound .

I used the heated seats in the M3W virtually constantly..! They added an additional glow to stave off being chilled when the weather is simply cool rather than cold. Watch the electrical loading with heated kit, too.
On the four wheel Morgan front, I have two stage heated seats and I use those in the same way, the difference is that they are heated on the upright part of the seat whereas the M3W was simply the seat squab.

If I had them I lnow I would use them, having said that even yesterday in freezing weather the seats do retain some heat, but if I bought a new one I would for sure spec them, probably just for the missus if nothing else, remember you have stuff to keep you busy and maybe a touch warmer, a passenger doesn't

Southern softies , I would not dare tell the lads up here in this club . One lad has a 1920's Lea Francis in original condition and uses it when he can along with other lads .

I have a heated jacket liner I use on the bikes and the W3W when ridding in freezing weather. I have heated seats in my wife's car she does use it all the time, but she is cold all the time anyway. I don't use them when I drive it. I would not use heated seats in the M3W. My torso, arms, and neck is what get cold on me in the M3W.

We bought heated seat cushions which plug into the aux power sockets.

Forget the heated seats, your bottom will not get cold.
As per everyone else, Keiss heated wastecoat and glove liners are the way to go.
Keeps your whole torso warm.

I have them and use them. They are nice in the evening to take the chill off, and when you are not packing any heated gear! They are reasonably priced. Skip the storage pockets!

The MMC storage pockets are soooo tiny! Almost too small for a mobile /Cell phone!!
I had Allon White ones - bigger and much more functional!

Let's put things in perspective: My Honda Goldwing had heated seats and I very rarely used that gimmick - but the few times I did I loved the option to switch them on. I have no heated seats in my 3Wheeler and I have not missed them yet.
But a Honda is a Honda and a Morgan may be more senible when it comes to Murphy's law: what can go wrong will go wrong (therefore no heated seats draining battery and rectifier) They draw almost nothing from the electrical system. They are also so simple, I'd never worry about " if it can go wrong...". I have them and use them as do many of my guests. If they weren't there I'd survive. Use them less on bitter cold days when I'm dressed for the weather than on chilly Summer and Fall evenings when I'm not.
