Thanks again everyone. I agree there have been threads like this before and it's all personal taste, but feedback is so essential considering it's not a car I can easily get to see with all these options in person or through a test drive! PaulV - I live in sunny Southern California, so my M3W will be a strictly fair-weather car I'll take for local weekend excursions through the canyons here to the beach, and probably sometimes to work, which is all of a 3 mile commute in a suburban community. I like the look of the factory windscreens and am getting the Morgan obviously in big part for the "raw experience," but also have a wife who is honestly terrified, and wonder if the bigger screen will ultimately provide a better experience for her and myself in the long run. Still back and forth on that. Techerek - I do appreciate the options guides you provide and I do see the three different stains for the wood - I'm wondering if you or anyone has seen how the painted part of the new dash can be customized from silver or perhaps is painted differently to complement the three available stains. Not sure if this was customized after delivery, but for instance see this: http://img.pistonheads.com.s3-eu-west-1....-S2764071-9.jpg So go with the standard windscreens ( which I too prefer the look of),and switch out later IF it presents a problem. 😊

Thats part of the new Euro 4 compliance. Lights increased in width to reflect the true width of the car!!! Well spotted. John. How does euro4 motorbike emission regs affect indicators? More likely the need for 40cm "from the side" (interpreted now as max width?) as per http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/1989/1796/schedule/7/made ... might be a conversion for all UK users if so

PaulV, i don`t have all the details, but, Euro4 for the M3W is more than just emissions.
In respect to the M3W it is ride height, emissions and width of vehicle. Emissions should have been dealt with by now. Width of vehicle looks like its been dealt with. That just leaves ride height. It has been mentioned elsewhere that it may not be just ground clearance, but overall height.
John.

Interesting - where did you get the info / idea that Euro4 is more than emissions? http://www.autotrader.co.uk/bikes/content/what-is-euro-4-and-how-will-it-affect-me and every other link I've found suggests its just emissions... so curious as to where you have got alternative info from...

I'm guessing it doesn't matter if we're in the EU or not if we want to sell into the EU we will have to conform!

Hi Chris Do you find that the smaller steering wheel makes much difference to the steering feel or weight?
