Dear Morgan friends,

sorry to post this, but a customer complaint can be helpful, may be!

Our short July-Story:

Susanas Aero: Electronic proplems & air condition problems ... not possible to drive. (Since 5 days at home ... now okay ... ready to market)
My Aero: Electronic problems .... not possible to drive. (dealer)
Aeromax: Hamburg weekend ... electronic problems ....brake-problems ... air condition problems (complete liquids on the front windshield) .... not possible to drive. (dealer)


I´m sure our dealer and the mechanics will solve the problems. The Morgan company is in contact with the dealer. All is running. Anyway, we´ve another idea about our leisure activies !

... result (Step 1): - 1 Aero + 1 Wiesmann MF 4 roadster.... may be next step will follow. Brian sorry, in this time I´ve no " Aero-based" confidence !.

Nearly the same price: Aero SS (´166 €), Wiesmann (complete ´169 €)
Same Engine: BMW , 4,8 L
"Same" Gearbox : 6- speed automatic
Same Dealer: Merz & Pabst
Same Service : Merz & Pabst
Same driver: Susana
Different Customer care: Objective more individuality and more professionality. This is not the forum to discuss Wiesmann, so I´ll be quiet.

Our sportscar decisions are based in a summery of our individuality and identification with a product, brand, and the peoples. We are since 20 years Morgan friends. After 18 years the problems started with the "Aero-based" Morgans. New technologies needs new quality management, investment in human resource development, after sales management and modern internal structures and processes....

Will say:

Trad. Morgan = < 65.000.- € .... perfect !
Aero based = +/- 120.000.- € incl. electronic problems & known after sales ..... NO CHANCE !
Aero based = > 165.000.- € (perfect product, perfect after sales...) .... should run.

Now I have to read about SLS .... laugh2

Oliver, I'm sorry to hear of your decision; however, if you feel it is the best way to resolve your issues, then so be it. smile

Will you have to wait long for the Weismann?

With your obvious commitment to the brand I cannot believe that Charles Morgan himself is not personally knocking on your door with offers of assistance. With your level of investment and such a catalogue of problems you have every right to expect a better than 'average' response. I hope it all gets sorted soon

Yes , Brian communicated ! We are very grateful about his assistance. Mark Baldwin and Charles Morgan are involved and reacted with prompt engineering and personal effort. In this time no more reaction makes sence ! So I´ve to say : Thank you.

Keep you informed.
