I just have ordered a new 4-4 in sports green with black leather and black hood. But as there is still enough time to change the color of the car, i am still thinking about an alternative to sports green. But it has to fit to black leather and hood. I have already studied lots of fotos about morgan colors, but did not made my final opinion yet. So, what do you think, which color of a morgan would be the perfect fit to black leather interieur an hood? Up to now i have already identified those candidates: - sports green: classic
- corsa red: a little bit too flashy for me
- white : ok, but ...
- black : ok either, but ...
I know that choosing a color is a question of very personal taste, but further suggestions will be highly appreciated. And a foto or link would be great! Thanks a lot in advance!

Black is dificult to keep clean & other cars often don't see you.
Red or green for me from that list

Orange and yellow really work.
Black no risk, all Mogs look great in black. IMHO.

If in doubt black is always a safe bet, although I don't think it ideal with a black interior so I would opt for saddle brown. If you wish to stay with a black interior then I would have Sport sand - a classic understated look!

Black or any dark colour is OK but make sure you keep your lights on all the time.
A friend has fitted daytime LEDs in the side lights of his +8 which are wired to be classic sidelight brightness at night.
Simple but effective.
But! Choosing the colours of a Morgan's interior and exterior is the hardest and most pleasurable part of the purchase. Using TM's photographs helps, but basically searching Morgan images on the net helped me. And I still keep finding colour combinations I like.

In a low sports car it is safer to be easily seen by other motorists.
I would choose the white which looks good with black hood and interior.
It is also far easier to keep clean than you would imagine.
I don't think we are really helping you though Ralf!

I would go for an ochre... Half way btw orange and yellow. Not the flashy kind yet visually appealing.

The Budster will back me up here.....the same colour as his 4/4 Stanley. He keeps telling me the correct colour and I never remember, but mid way between maroon and the usual red. Very classy and looks good with black hood, leather and piped in a colour to match the paint.
