So I've semi-decided a direction for my order (classic silver arrow / vintage racer) for my M3W, but trying to finalize a "specific" color on the web has proven difficult. The Matt Silver on the Superdry edition is close, but I'm unsure I want a Matt Silver. I've found this Audi Silver Arrow photo which is probably more like I'd want http://www.audi.co.uk/content/dam/audi/p...12/AU012246.jpgWhat's the best way to source a color? Just email this photo to my dealer and let them figure it our or is there some magical repository other than Google of Moggie color choices. Thanks!

Ask a body shop for match number. Whenever a car like the Audi needs repair, there is a database for all the colors used by the factory so that they can match it. Then give that to the Morgan people or let them do the grunt work...
What's your mileage? Who cares. Is it practical? See #1. What happens when it rains? You get wet.

Sorry, I'm trying to get a precise color, not a color in general. I've probably enjoyably spent hundreds of hours on Google and Youtube trying to find specifics.  It's like "Alpine White" for BMW or "Rally Blue" for Subaru. These are specific colors I can search for and see images of, but I can't find a list of colors, by name, for Morgans. For example they have say 20 different leather colors, which are on their site, but not listed by name that I can find. Maybe there is a wiki? How can I see the 4 "red" leathers they offer? I do like the suggestion of just picking a color from a paint shop though! The image ^^ is closest to what I want though, I'm just an anal retentive ex-Apple designer so it's taking me a while to find precisely what's in my head. 8)

BTW I love the red leather in that photo, does anyone know specifically if that is "Matt Silver" on the body and which leather it is?

You could try contacting Crossthwaite and Gardiner in the UK and ask them if they could help you with the paint code. They built some of the replica cars and restored an original for Audi.

Morgan offer all of the major car manufacturers colour, I think it amounts to about 30,000 colours. Visit an Audi dealers get some colour charts and then let your dealer know what you want. Hopefully the colours will be international.
