Thanks Ivo for this comparison. Whilst I really like the duo-tone from the side view, for me neither of the rear views work very well especially when compared with an Aero 8 duo-tone. The two colours are much more in balance imho.  On one of our recent visits to the MMC, we asked Matt Humphries which colour he thought best-suited the AeroMax shape and he replied: "As Designers, we design all our cars in metallic silver as it illustrates the light falls and breaks better than any other colour. Therefore, my cars are always silver". Whilst an interesting comment, it does limit ones choice somewhat!

The two colours are much more in balance imho. I'd have to agree - from the side, stunning! From the rear... the car loose the cohesive appeal of the design imho. Even so, Morgans are about individuality - so each to their own!

Yes... Although silver is not at all "my" colour, (you will be surprised... it's yellow  ) and despite the fact, that I have an affection for two-tone Morgans, the Aeromax looks best to me in silver.

Ditto - probably fairly dark.
But I'd absolutely love to have some software to test any colour on an Aeromax, from every direction and with any possible lighting.
probably a good thing though - I wouldn't get any work done at all!

How about black over yellow rather than yellow over black?

Thanks Ivo, like you I do like duo-tone Morgan's and I think that your combination looks ace. In fact, I have been thinking of buying a 4/4 Sport and find the colour range a bit limiting. The easy answer is to do a duo-tone and your colour combination looks ace!   Do you think that the yellow body would clash with the tan interior?

... Do you think that the yellow body would clash with the tan interior? For me, it would... Similar to the red. I find, that the interior works perfectly with the dark colours, and quite OK with the white. On the other hand, the tan interior is very classic. I guess, it's just a matter of taste.
