Yes. As I said its real pretty. I never understand why far more owners dont specify cars in two tone paint. Really suits the trad. Wonder what it would look like with white wall tyres on?

Howard,
As a fellow Yorkshireman I feel I can tell you something that I'm sure you already know..its about time you made the decision and buy a Morgan....all this foreplay is getting you upset and frustrated !!
It's sunny and cold in York and as a retired person I am about to crack up my 4/4,roof off and take off for a long drive to blow away the winter blues.
Meanwhile your red Italian motor sits in its warm garage and life ticks away so quickly...
Just saying !!!!

The cream body, burgundy wings with burgundy upholstery and hood always works really well as a colour combination on a Morgan.
In general I think Mog looks best with only 2 colours, however they are used, but this particular choice is really good.

This one has stone upholstery, not so sure it goes with the burgundy wings.

There is a member of FellMog with a similar colour scheme.His is a plus 4 it does look good though Thanks Brownbaker, that will be mine. I test drove a different two tone Roadster before I ordered mine but if this Roadster was on sale at the time it would now be in my garage! In the end I decided on the Plus 4. Howard - I looked into whitewall tyres at the time but thought it might look a bit trying too hard to be overly "Gatsby". I still haven't ruled them out though. As for the 2 colours, my leather is magnolia with mulberry trim however I specified the door tops and rear quarters to be mulberry and the dash top to be magnolia. It may not seem to work to a lot of owners but I like it. That is the beauty of Morgans, it is in the eye of an individual beholder.
