Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Morgan Photo Gallery Some 3W Sport Paint + Bespoke Leather Combos

Thinking, thinking... so many color choices...

I wanted to try some Bespoke leather colors with standard Sport paint colors – something that can't be done with the online "Showroom" – so I fired up PhotoShop and went to work.

The selections with the green check marks are my favorites. What are yours?

(Notice that I assigned codes to each combo for easy reference.)

Nice work - the amount of choices really makes it hard...at the same time it is not that much to repaint if you get feed up after 10-15 years.

If you imagine no 4 being silver/tan - thats my choice. A classic and neutral colour easy to personalize with racing numbers, roundells, Union Jacks, stripes, shark teeths or whatever mood you are in for the coming season

My plan is to pop over to Malvern when production is fully up and running (late autumn?) to get some inspiration and also see the combinations in real life.

If I had to choose from the selection you have offered above I would vote for the Sport Ivory with the burgundy leather.

also my idea,
a nice thing to do when the cold, windy and rainy days are back

I'd be inclined to agree.

Colour choice is a very personal thing and individual tastes vary.

Were I to purchase a M3W, I'd want to have it in a bright colour because I feel it suits the personality of the car and also, from a safety perspective, it seems to make a lot of sense (to me!).

Top of my list would be Porsche Signal Yellow (a bright light Orange, not the 'Yellow' it would lead you to believe it is), with black trim and black leather with orange stitching.

I can see why people want to make them look vintage but for me, I'd rather embrace the modernity of this retro inspired creation.

I am shocked you didn't order one, Simon Simon Simon
you spend to much time in driving castles

Boshly, Aeroman and I put our names down at the same time; however, too much consideration over the many months has made me too practical and I questioned how much I would use it. Still love the idea but for me it is one that I can't justify.

I can give you A LOT of tips to JUSTIFY another car

Well, why not let some of the "locals" recommend a nice B&B and let us all foreigners (+locals) meet up in dark/cold/windy September/October and have a united trip to Malvern and maybe a drink of your choice afterwards to in dephts discuss choice of colour/leather/extras?

I will buy the first round/Tony

Saturday 10th September is an MSCC buffet lunch event at the factory. Downside is no real work going on. Upside is a better tour & experience. This may be full, but it might be worth contacting Angela.

Dear Centre Secretary,

We are looking to raise £250,000 to produce a life size bronze Model depicting HFS Morgan handing the factory keys over to his son Peter Morgan in 1957, with a life size Morgan beside them. The statue celebrates 100 years of Morgan and will be a stunning feature in Great Malvern!

The Morgan Motor Company would like to invite members of The Morgan Sports Car Clubs to exclusive open mornings at the factory. Additional events including a summer ball, charity auction, golf tournament, themed events etc will be added to this program throughout the year.

Our next exclusive open morning will be on Saturday 7th May with the next event on 10th September for which we are also now taking bookings.

The Morgan Sports Car Club excusive morning will start at 10am with morning coffee followed by an exclusive guided factory tour and directors presentation to inform you of exciting new developments planned for 2011, with an update on the new three wheeler!

A buffet lunch will be served at the end of the morning and the Visitor Centre gift shop will be open offering a 10% discount on all items for the morning. The cost of the morning, including lunch, is £12.50 per person with a minimum of £5 being donated towards the statue.
