I quite like the green, but would never have chosen it. Will it be a lucky car?

Just wondering what year the front bonnet catches were moved further forward.
also what was the reason?

Moved to accommodate the 3.7 Roadster engine. The wing valances changed at the same time.

My +4 is very much like the green one shown here in as much as it has painted wires with spinners, wing lights and full width bumpers ( a VERY expensive option )
I have been toying with the idea of changing to clear indicator lenses and after seeing them I think it may well be the final touch.
My car is a very traditional Royal Ivory with Honey Brown interior.
By the way, Chipex are very good for touch up paint, I ordered a pot with brushes using the Morgan paint code ( M025 ) for, I think, £22.00 delivered. happy3

As a follow up, I ordered the front and rear clear lenses from Phil at BHM for the very reasonable price of £36.00 delivered inc VAT. My Morgan price list quotes £300.00. How can they justify this price difference especially when it is merely a substitute for the normal yellow ones

Ah the one behind the old fogies. I'd hope to get a clear shot but they were the tail end of a factory tour and got in the way....

Surprisingly I too really like that Green!

I would never choose that off a chart - but in the flesh it looks sooo classic - a great choice IMO!

I too can highly recommend Chipex - not so easy to use as they say - but with practice and a timer for the paint to go off I got a good result with my 4/4
