What would you do?Just a quick question to the more experienced Morgan buyers out there. I have ordered my car with black leather seats and light grey stitching, as you can see in some of my pictures further up in the thread. I have also ordered the winged Morgan logo to be stitched between the two seats. When I went to visit my car at the dealership, I noticed that the Morgan logo is stitched with black thread instead of the light gray used everywhere else on the seats. So black logo on black leather seems a bit pointless (and invisible...) to me.  According to the configurator, the logo is supposed to be the same color as the stitching in the seats. I know it is a minor (esthetical) problem, but for sure it will bug me every time I look at it. What would you do when it comes to taking over the car from the dealer? Insist on having this fixed (not sure if the middle part between the seats can be exchanged easily)? Refuse to pay for it (does not solve the problem). Any suggestions? Thank you, Adrian.

Barkbark those pictures look fantastic. The red really "pops" together with that gold and gloss black!

At Caffeine and Machine earlier today. I was super snug tucked up with the seat warmer on, on the hot setting, it keeps you very warm: ![[Linked Image]](http://tm-img.com/images/2022/12/26/IMG_1769.jpeg) ![[Linked Image]](http://tm-img.com/images/2022/12/26/IMG_1768.jpeg) Marketing managers pay Advertising Agencies vast sums to come up with arty farty "on location" video and photo shoots, these real life shots will sell more.

Not sure expecting things to be right is OCD Chris. The demo i drove had the same issue as did my m3w. Far more knowledgeable folk here than me but mine was just a tight belt.
Great images, enjoy.

Caffeine and Machine is a great spot. I stayed overnight a few months ago and really enjoyed it. Your Super 3's spec looks better every time I see it! Other than that, this thing is awesome. On Christmas day the whole family took it turns coming out with me for a spin, I was out driving it for over an hour, everyone loved it. I have an eight and a five year old who think it's the coolest thing in the world. And even the missus likes it! ![[Linked Image]](http://tm-img.com/images/2022/12/27/9e541f51-7126-439e-80b5-f380271a2cd7.jpeg) Fantastic picture Chris, wishing you much family fun in your car  Your street cred just went through the roof

I totally agree. Plus it seems that depending upon outside lighting, the car changes slightly its color. it really looks great Barkbark. Chris, keep us post on the belt and enjoy the rides with the kids.

I would tell them immediately before it leaves the factory. The best outcome will be them changing it, or the least they could do would be to take it off the bill. My configuration showed my stitching to be diagonal in a diamond shape, but what I got was square stitching. I’ve just realised. I’ll not bother saying anything though, I’m more concerned about the mechanical faults. When driving it today, it conked out at a roundabout and the battery warning light popped up for a few seconds. So I’ll add that to the list of faults. And it’s only done 300 miles.

To my design eye, the logo should also be in the light grey stitching to match the contrasting seat thread

I would tell them immediately before it leaves the factory. The best outcome will be them changing it, or the least they could do would be to take it off the bill. Even if its at the dealers - tell them. It is not to spec. Ask them to fix it. You paid good money for a custom configuration! My configuration showed my stitching to be diagonal in a diamond shape, but what I got was square stitching. I’ve just realised. I’ll not bother saying anything though, I’m more concerned about the mechanical faults.... No you really should, too. You also paid for a specific configuration, not for some internal Morgan training program where they learn to read specs right and at the right time. Ask them for the supply of the replacement seat pads (assuming you can fit them yourself) then ask if they want the old ones back! Just remember - if you were in the USA you would be threatening to sue their ass*s off!

Absolutely agree with PaulV. For decades Morganistas have allowed poor quality and or failings to go unchallenged. They need the Super 3 to be a success. The general demographic are not from the make do and mend age. Set the standard, please.
