I've recently looked at Aero SS (Auto) and Hammond's old 'Max, but in the end my Aero 8 S3 is too good not to keep and I can add a M3W for a lot less than replacing the Aero 8.

Looking forward to trying to work out what to do colour-wise, and hoping to see more road tests and early versions to steer me in the right direction. Tend to be a bit conservative on colours (Aero 8 is Stingray Grey / Black interior) and expect the seats on the M3W will end up getting stood on quite a bit and getting wet too, so an easy colour like black with a reasonable contrast exterior is where I am right now. Might even go for the same colours on both so Stingray Grey if they'll do it without charging a bundle.

I'd had the same consideration about seat color – dark being more soil-forgiving to stand on. Some here have assured me that you won't need to stand on the seat to climb in, however. Here in coastal Southern California any dark leather color would quickly soak up the sun's heat year-round, and fry my Euro-bum in a nano-second. Might need to keep an official Morgan towel handy to sit on.

There's no need to stand on the seats!

Having sat in two now myself and having watched many get in / out at Goodwood BHM day, there are many physical specimens who will find it very hard to get either in or out without using the seats as a step. This isn't a problem as such! But you may be disappointed if a passenger marks your bright yellow leather seats with muddy trainers...

I'm only 5'5" and steping on the seat getting in and out of a 3 wheeler is pretty much standard for these vehicles. Unless you've got a gymnastics background or in your teens you'll be doing it.

Many people have trouble getting into (don't know how too banghead ) my 4/4 and scuff up the carpet in the footwells swear .

Entering the M3W would be very similar to entering/leaving a Caterham/Westfield/...... and I have never seen anyone who does not stand on the seat.
