Surprised they haven't fitted a tyre hugging plastic mudguard. At least this was an option on the M3W. The boot area is going to get awfully mucky over time. Out of sight out of mind mentality - but expect it to be a Super 3 option in 2026, with a home made option described here on TM in early 2024

Hi Barkbark how did you remove the boot liner? Twist the two rubber cones, they unscrew. Once these are removed, it lifts straight out. It takes 30 seconds at the most. I asked at the factory last week how to do it and felt a complete idiot when shown - they got a mechanic to demonstrate, I’m sure they did this to emphasise how simple it was!! Interesting, when Greg from London Morgan dropped mine off it was one of the things he showed me. I'm guessing they didn't add an extra mudguard as the boot liner already acts in some respects as a mud guard and if they had added one it may have compromised boot space due to additional clearances etc. I have found that that boot has been kept very clean by the various seals around the boot liner. Although my approach to putting anything in the boot is to assume that it will get wet!! Barkbark - did you just coat everything in ACF 50 or have you done it selectively?

I was just about to make the same comment Richard, lot's of handy fixings around to hang one off Yeah, it really needs a mudguard. Especially when there’s so much salt on the roads atm. I’m trying to give mine a quick hose after each drive. Is there a particular company that made a lot of aftermarket accessories for the M3W? I wonder if any will do the same with the S3? I think I read somewhere that Krazy Horse are going to make an aftermarket sports exhaust. That might be something I would be interested in if it’s cheaper or better than the one from Morgan.

I suspect it will the these chaps https://demandengineering.co.uk/blog/category/custom/ who do a lot of stuff for KH, inc a switchable bypass system for Roadsters...want one

There is an owner currently fabricating a mudguard for the Super3 - its quite complex as there is not much room between tyre and Liner. He is on the second version already as has improved the fitment.
Its quite complicated under there and wasn't helped by MMC already changing the position of the wheel sensor between the demo cars and the customer cars.....so the mudguard had to be redesigned.
Once it has passed his testing regime I'm sure the mudguard will be available to others - it won't be cheap as its a quite complicated piece of fabrication, but it will be worthwhile.
I'm sure KH will have an exhaust upgrade in due course - they do not use Demand Engineering anymore (or didn't on the 5 speeder exhausts).

Selectively, the items at moderate risk of corrosion. I may black hammerite the exhaust hangers, it’ll be quick and easy to do with the boot liner removed.

Barkbark, would it be possible to see a picture of the underside of the boot liner ?, im wondering if the addition of 4 baffles to the underside of the liner would redirect some of this water spray and dirt.
