Cannot decide on colour choice but as mine is being built July / Aug I shortly need to confirm, of the sport colours red / grey / green appeal but dont know whether to go bespoke.....appreciate thoughts, want something that looks the part and is good for resale eventually also?
Guidance please...

BH, colour really is such a personal choice and the temptation to go the bespoke route is always a strong one when ordering a new Morgan. My advice would be to take a look at the colour sample threads: Morgan Aero colour samples and Traditional Morgan colour samples as a start. If you want to reference the historic nature of the Moran 3 Wheeler, it would make sense to go for a non-metallic paint, as would have been found on the original three wheelers. Personally, while I haven't seen the 3-Wheeler in Sport Red, I have seen the Pedal Car in it, and it looked superb.

I agree with Simon about choosing non-metallic paint.
Remember the 3W is about FUN (and really nothing more), so the colors should reflect that.
To add to the confusion, you may want to do a poll of who'd order decals, and if so, which ones? And don't forget... black or chrome trim?

Pipe down! Bright Green, TVR Green/Blue and then Blue... you're one to talk! (and that is before I bring in your Silver Aeromax (which I know you didn't spec) and your Blue 4/4 Sport  )
