Could look good - try it on the car creator on the Morgan web site. Last years brochure had a sand Morgan with a black interior which looked good.

Heinz, you've done an excellent job of expressing your opinion. wine

I also agree that a great part of the appeal of the Plus 4 SS was the retro, period 1960s, colours. Had the car been offered in a modern spectrum, I would have found the draw to it far less strong.

Agree with you Heinz about the retro colours, and pastel blues in general. The RAF blue and Iris blue on the +4 SS are very nice colours.

I found this blue on the internet as well and I think it's nice, a sort of cross between Iris and RAF blue, and very retro with the black wires. Its at the bottom of this page if you follow this link to the Bangkok Motor Show (ignoring the girls as you scroll down shocked2)-

David, I wonder if that is Sport Grey but over exposed by the flash of the camera?

I still really like my Plus4 in Aston Martin Mendip Blue -- it has a slight metallic fleck which makes the car sparkle when it is clean!!

Could be sport grey, could probably be teal as well. It´s a good example how much to trust colours in the internet. Anyway it seems to be a paint from the sports standard range as the car looks like a sport series one.
But it is a very nice shot on it´s own and it would be a nice colour when it would be a real "in the metal" one.

Sorry, couldn´t ignore the girls nerd

Simon - looking at it again, I think you are probably right, it could be Sport Grey. But, as Heinz says, if it were a real colour then it would be a good one.

In fact I have done a little more research on that “mystery colour Morgan”. It was indeed a Sport Grey one which was demonstrated by Morgan at the 2011 Bangkok Motor Show. More girls here as well love . The car (and the girls) look beautiful - Grey is a great colour :

you can choose the shade of a metallic colour without the metallic effect, simply leave out the silver in the mix, add a small amount of pearl if necessary to give a fresher new look/Glean
