Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Morgan Three Wheeler & Super 3 The Super 3

One of the Super 3’s at the launch did have a mudguard over the rear wheel.

To open the rear hatch there is a lever at the top middle of the seat back rest, the boot liner can be removed by undoing a couple of thumb screws.

Completely agree with 3Gs and will go further. Morgan get away with it because its end users (the retail customer) have allowed them. Even new Super 3 buyers are asking for advice or attempting to fix issues with recently delivered product. If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem.

Morgan want and need to entice a new, younger buyer. These buyers will fall outside of the baby boomer, make do and mend generation.
How long will the Morgan "some will, some won`t, who cares, who`s next attitude serve them?

An attitude reinforced by the Morgan Works General Manager.I was asked via an email if i had come to a decision re the Super 3. To which i politely replied that due to quality concerns expressed on here, i would be keeping the wallet closed for now. Despite being a Works customer of just 13 months, no attempt was made to placate my concerns and no further email has been received.

Nobody wants to pee on anyone's parade here. We surely all want it to succeed, especially those with new models purchased, on order or those (myself included) who have spent months agonising over specs and attempting to silence the screaming voice in my head.

I am reminded of some words from a very well known and respected multiple Morgan owner (who will speak in private but dare not offend anyone at Morgan) who said re Morgan new model ownership. "If you can`t see the hills it`s raining and if you can see them, it`s about to start" Even the Ostrich with the longest neck can surely get that message.

If Morgan do not learn from their customers, they most definitely will not learn from themselves.

Edit**

I phoned the dealership again. They are going to contact Morgan Monday and hopefully get a plan together about how we’re going to get my car sorted. Which is a great sign.

So I feel like a bit of a moaner now, just wanted to vent a little, guess I was just a bit gutted because I just want to get out and enjoy the car.

So just to recap, love the car to bits, early car with a few teething problems that hopefully will get sorted at no cost to me.

Here’s what mine looks like.

May I suggest a wash down followed by a liberal coating of ACF-50 all over the trailing arm and spindle adjusters (and anything else that you don't want to go rusty)?
If they're anything like the 5-Speeder parts then they will start to rust pretty quickly.

Don’t worry, I’m already on that. The car is currently being ceramic coated at detailer. Once it’s home, the ACF-50 will be coming out.
