No such thing exists to all - like love it is in the eye of the beholder, always think about selling it eventually before you chose a radical colour though unless money has ceased to be an issue at all with you grin2.

I can appreciate two tones, but like the horns they are not my cup of tea.

Just read yours Roger - sorry I wasn't copying you just my thoughts.

If it's not Connaught Green or Indigo Blue it doesn't exist in my world.

I cannot stand red cars!

Nothing looks more uninspiring than a row of Ferraris's in "resale" red with obligatory crema leather interior. So monotonous and beyond boring by "playing it safe must watch values"

Same goes for Porsche guards red and Alfa's in rosso red.

I'm not a fan of Morgans in "flat cap" spec.

As in chrome/stainless wheels. I don't like the spare on the back no matter how practical. Metallics don't really suit trads IMPHO. Coloured piping on seats is a huge no no too! Also do not like wooden dashes!

I prefer the slim styling of the original 4/4.

I have no idea who specc'd this 4/4 but it has the look of an 80's yuppie 911 3.2 Carrera who specced it whilst on an illegal substance!

FYI I have a 4/4 sport grey 2012 with no frills or anything!

Minimalism and simplicity is the way forwards!

However I concede beauty is in the eyes of the "beer holder"...!!

Am having difficulty visualising the previous owner as an 80s yuppie!

For what it's worth, my 4/4 has the full set, stainless wires, including the spare, metallic paint, coloured piping,a wooden dash and I love it.

As has been said many times before, lucky we are all different or the world would be very boring.

Man after my own heart. A pretty Morgan just has to be two tone.


Completely agree....and with full width bumpers. innocent
