Thanks again everyone. I agree there have been threads like this before and it's all personal taste, but feedback is so essential considering it's not a car I can easily get to see with all these options in person or through a test drive! PaulV - I live in sunny Southern California, so my M3W will be a strictly fair-weather car I'll take for local weekend excursions through the canyons here to the beach, and probably sometimes to work, which is all of a 3 mile commute in a suburban community. I like the look of the factory windscreens and am getting the Morgan obviously in big part for the "raw experience," but also have a wife who is honestly terrified, and wonder if the bigger screen will ultimately provide a better experience for her and myself in the long run. Still back and forth on that. Techerek - I do appreciate the options guides you provide and I do see the three different stains for the wood - I'm wondering if you or anyone has seen how the painted part of the new dash can be customized from silver or perhaps is painted differently to complement the three available stains. Not sure if this was customized after delivery, but for instance see this: http://img.pistonheads.com.s3-eu-west-1....-S2764071-9.jpg

Does anyone know what colors leather and paint were used for the heritage edition morgan puts out in press photos? I have no idea of the exact colours in these pics, but I'd guess at 'MMC Sport Red' and 'MMC Sport Sand' maybe..? They were parked at the factory the other week. The first pair are hire cars and the one on the grass I have no idea about, I just snapped a pic whilst I was there.

Well spotted skullmog. What the heck is that all about. It's on English plates so clearly not a foreign market requirement.

Thats part of the new Euro 4 compliance. Lights increased in width to reflect the true width of the car!!! Well spotted. John.

It may well worth buying a pair of `old` reflector lights, and change them back later.
