Spec so far.
Colour sorted, additional paintwork, leather tbc, full windscreen, rack, stripes, blockleys, plus all the other little bits n bob's. Mudgard etc.
Stage 2, been reading the pros n cons of G56 and for now I'll stick with AR.
Can anyone think of anything that they'd really wish they had added to their build ? (no sarcastic quality control comments, please).

Does Morgan offer stage 2? Is there any cons of stage 2? I haven't found one. To do it later it will cost about $1K in parts as you need new cams and ECU.
Radio
Heated seats for me
Full windscreen
Vintage bonnet latches I have no experience with the others but they look challenging to me-I heard the vintage ones allow slight movement
Upgraded shocks you can always install ohlins after the fact but that is about $2K
Footwell storage I have it and like it but others not so much. Gives me a place to throw all my junk like sunblock, ear plugs, registration, etc

Various Morgan dealers offer the upgrade via MMC, Techniques for example. I presumed I can ask for it to be done via Aero Racing whilst being built or after maybe. I shall double check. Everything else is in the bits n bobs list. I'll more than likely add (get it fitted, beyond me) a bonnet strap as per my last one that functions as a strap. To help with the rattles. Not sure where they can fit a radio or if it would ever be heard  maybe a USB slot would be handy, can't remember if there was one? I'll use wireless earbuds. Not going to add the Immobiliser as last one caused drainage issues. Forgot added Ohlins

Two extras I would not have are the side pockets (too small; too tight) and immobiliser (drains the battery). MMC will fit Stage 2 components, but if you are looking to the full kit (throttle body/injectors, to add to high lift cams) a fair bit of tuning is required to get the fuel maps right, and the factory will not do that. Krazy Horse are the ones for dyno tuning, but as the factory will not supply your M3W with an unlocked (ie tuneable) ECU you might be better off specifying Stage 1 + cams and getting the Stage 2 ECU and throttle body etc fitted by KH. The AR exhausts are also on the noisy side. If you are thinking of racing you may find that they exceed db limits (as mine did at my last track day).

Sorry my sense of humor. The radio was a bad joke.

I didn’t get the side pockets but wish I had. Yes, they will hold very little but that’s more than nothing at all!
