Well I have been told my car will be back with me in about three weeks after being away for 9 long months.
I have had to have new compensator to latest design new bevel box and a number of other issues resolved.
Let's say there have been issues with part supply and cost of work consideration under warranty ...but we are nearly there.
I was shocked when my dvla road tax DD reminder came and I realised I was paying for 9 months tax mot and insurance while the car was sitting with Morgan.
Anyhow can't wait now three weeks and counting 😁

A very long wait but hopefully all sorted.
You mention waiting for a new compensator to the latest design - any idea what's changed over the "original" Centa unit?

I'm pretty sure the 'updated' Centa design is related to Morgan improving the oil sealing surface finish on the Centa journal part. I was waiting for my M3W to be returned to relate my experience with a likely similar issue but I'll post it now... Oil Leak / Centa Part thread

I'm not sure of the M3W equivelant of the sailor's blessing, "fair winds and following seas" so...
May your journey have smooth tarmac, mechanical harmony, and smiles that eclipse the past.

It take Morgan longer to repair a three wheeler than to build a new one?
