This weekend we had a "Estoril Classic" event, with plenty of races (classic F1 pre and post 1966, Sports Cars, GT Cars, Formula Junior)

I went there with the M3W, with paddock access and even a few track laps for car clubs (among them a few members of the Portuguese Morgan Club).

Was pleased to see this beauty doing, and finishing, a 3 hour race this morning. This Picture was taken after the race so as you can see it looks like it's ready for another one

Does indeed look ready for another race.

Lovely cars. What a shame that Morgan did not use this form for the Plus 4 Plus.

Dead right there Peter

Thanks Mario

Did they have problems during the 3 hours , they finished a lot lower in the order than I would have expected and many laps behind the leader?

I have found the answer , they spent almost 14 minutes in the pits at driver changeover time, they had been running as high as second before that.

Sorry Andy, didn't catch your question. When I arrived to the track the race was in its final stages so I didn't catch any info. I found it odd that the car was so far down the order, because its one lap pace was very good, and it was running fine when I watched, so I assumed mechanical problems/gremlins had happened prior to my arrival and had been solved.

I considered getting to talk to the guys around the car, but I guess being shy doesn't help when all you can say is "beautiful car and btw I own Morgans and love them"

The car on your photo has one of the nicest BRG I have seen, I know, it‘s just a snapshot but I have looked at it on three different devices now, it shows a different tone of course on each different screen but nevertheless it is a very nice BRG. Does someone know the paint code or could it even be duplicated?
