Jubilee Blue. I'm not quite sure how the Morgan colour choices work, but my understanding is that this was one of three or four "factory special" (rather than customer-specified) colour options for the 75th anniversary year in 1984-5. The car is an '85 4/4 four-seater. This photo was taken in September 2008, and shows the car arriving at its new home, having been driven out of the back of a container after clearing Canadian customs, still on its English plates.

Hi,
My Morgan 4/4 has this color. Can you tell the color code for this Connaught Green, as I would like to repaint the car.
Thanks,
Tibor

Zurallic Blue Roadster.

Difficult colour to photograph, unless in very bright sun it seems more black than blue!

A lot of comment here about the "Zurallic" paints used by Morgan. Web searching revealed nothing until I found this link:
http://www.merck-performance-materials.com/en/coatings/coatings_xirallic/coatings_xirallic.html

Seems that to avoid Trade Mark issues Morgan or their paint supplier modified Xirallic, owned by E Merck, Germany to Zurallic....Seems that this is a very expensive finish and quite clever in the way it reflects colour.

Some colour examples which I saw last year at the factory.

Two more photos.

Christian

Great shots and thanks for sharing.

Sport Yellow - Hyundai Dynamic Yellow.

Very smart Dave!

Love the colour Dave... Well done

The BMW in the background is black, Aldermog isn't!

This is the Aldermog being enjoyed:

The yellow Moggie in Dave W's photo reminded me of my first Morgan, a beautiful +4 in Lambo Metalic yellow ( which had hints of green in the sun ) with blue leather interior.
I also bought this from the brilliant BHM people and I think it now resides in Scotland.

This car changes colour according to how the light catches it from a deep sea green to a vibrant metallic blue.

Metallic Burgundy.

Royal Ivory with a choice of wheels.

After a factory visit today I discover that the colour is actually called Jaguar Garnet Red.

Morgan 4/4 1600 sports grey

Absolutely stunning, a favourite colour, looks good on a three wheeler too. Very understated and traditional IMHO.

Great looking car.

Now that I like. In the past I had a cooper s painted in the same colours but the Alfa Romeo Equivalents. Very smart.

Rolls Royce Garnet Red.

I've come to the conclusion that I like every colour as long as it's on a Morgan

Agreed Stewart, I don't think I've seen a bad one yet.

Burgundymog's garnet in the pic above takes some beating.

Often the garnet looks a touch dark for my fickle tastes but in that light it is stunning.

I agree.

My Morgan 4/4, Feb. 2015, with body in Mercedes Papyrus White and Wings in Sports black. Interieur in Yarwood black, black hood, black spoke wheels:

I've never seen a black & white before, and it works very well I think. Well done you, very smart.

It looks super doesn't it

I'd have to wear a pair of white spats on some black brogues to go with it

I have just published the built record of my morgan to the members area.

posted before in the photo gallery, here again, for the records of this thread.

2014 4/4 Graphite Grey, color code DB190

Still looking great Heinz

I seem to remember you posted that it was a vintage Mercedes colour

Have I got that right?

Hi Stewart,
yes, you are right. DB stands for Daimler Benz.

That is a lovely colour Heinz & if I was ordering a new car would be very high up in my colour choice.

Just thought I would add a couple of pics to the gallery. Rich Maroon with Royal Ivory. Magnolia leather.


Edit: Drat, foiled by technology yet again!

Really rather special...I like it a lot!

Thanks, two tones tend to divide opinion, as does the "bling".

Beautiful looking two tones.

Another interesting colour combination for BHM!

Saw that on Monday when I called into the factory parked alongside some finished cars bound for Germany...now I am colour blind and obviously each to his own but I could not live with that combination !!!!

Gosh, that is truely distinctive!

As a Manchester City supporter I can honestly say that it is one of the nicest and most striking colour combinations I have seen!

Bias aside, the owner is a brave chap/ette but it works very well. I would have been tempted to have a navy hood and navy piping on the leather to break up the light blue but as KEVFITZ says, everyone to their own, the interior of mine is pretty unusual too and not to everyone's tastes. I'm sure the new owner of the blue car loves it.

Most of that I like....

Rolls Royce Tudor Red

Morgan Sport White 2015 4/4

Apologies if this is published elsewhere but wondering when MMC put the Sport prefix to all the no cost option standard colours.

I remember having trouble sourcing Sport Green paint for my M3W which I now believe is known elsewhere as Brooklands Green. Similarly their Sport Red is I understand Corsa Red with Ferrari origins. Is there a definitive list of these standard colours with matching BS381 or RAL numbers?

I suspect that Sport Green is not the same shade as Brooklands Green, for two reasons:

1. Sport Green three wheelers look different to Brooklands models
2. Brooklands Green is an absolute doddle to get hold of as it's a stock Jaguar paint, code 753.

I recently had to get some touch up paint for my Brooklands Green M3W. It is a different code to Sport Green - MMC gave me HFB or 753.

Sports Sand, which used to be one of MMC standard colours, not anymore I believe

That's quite an interesting shade Craig. Shame no longer available as standard colour option.

My query though was the with the origins of the current "Sport" prefix MMC colour range. They must have had original names and likely were associated with particular marques, this is the info I was seeking.

Then the interior,
